at the same return, I bet 'back in the day' people thought turn signals and brake lights were foolish add ons, heck, we already have hand signals, who need blinking lights?
myself, I am still waiting on the flying car
LOL, how true. Then it was automatic transmissions so you don't have to pay attention to shifting, power steering so you can tool around with one finger on the wheel, then power brakes because pushing that pedal is just "so difficult". Power windows and door locks, so if the battery goes dead you can't even get into the car, never mind that's it's locked in park and the steering wheel is locked so you can't push it anywhere. It's a slippery slope and we haven't gotten to the bottom yet
