I agree; the future is closer than we tend to think. :-) We use things every day that were science fantasy (not just fiction) when I was in high school. I'm pretty confident that by the time my RV-7 rotary flies, I'll be able to put an affordable electric motor & batteries on at least an ultralite style a/c as an 'after supper' toy.
