Damn scientists....It's 2015.  Where's my hover-car?!

Flying cars: available since the 1950s, still somewhat expensive, also noisy and inefficient for casual purposes, and dangerous as all hell.

ICEBREAKER THESIS CHRONOLOGY! -- Victor Suvorov's Stalin Grand Strategy theory, in lots and lots of chronological order...
Dawn of Armageddon -- narrative AAR for Dawn of War: Soulstorm: Ultimate Apocalypse
Survive Harder! -- Two season narrative AAR, an Amazon Blood Bowl career.
PanzOrc Corpz Generals -- Fantasy Wars narrative AAR, half a combined campaign.
Khazâd du-bekâr! -- narrative dwarf AAR for LotR BfME2 RotWK campaign.
RobO Q Campaign Generator -- archived classic CMBB/CMAK tool!

Are they hover cars?  No? Then GTFO.

Go easy on the guy, he's Canadian. We all know it'll be an American who invents the hover car.

Forget the hovercar. I want someone to open an Einstein-Rosen-Podolsky Bridge so I can get the hell out of here!

I think that was the "dwarf" planet that had started the debate about Pluto's status, after it was discovered further out.   IIRC.  Or both that and Eris..?

Staggerwing

Eris is more massive than Pluto and may even turn out to be larger as well once both have been fully measured.

That's a silly name.  I would have called it Doug.
