Either that, or perhaps a personal transit thingie. They talk about
re-architecting cities, it being a 'non-dirty' technology. Perhaps some
sort of bike? Or perhaps a uni-pod device. I have a cool book from Syd Mead
(http://www.sydmead.com/) where he talks about gyroscopically balanced
unipod vehicles that can take you all over the place. There's a picture
here: http://www.sydmead.com/v/2/topsenmonpframe.html
It's a very cool device. I want one. :-)
I think I'll CC: this to domesteading, so others can check it out.
