Invention greater than the PC and internet coming?

what could this IT or "Ginger" be?...by the quotes and hints it sounds like some sort of new way of transportation...,could it be a energy source cleaner and better than anything out there? and maybe even last forever with-out a refill?...could it be hover craft?....teleportation machine?....be afraid...startrek is coming true..my god..i thought i would never see this in my life...

BUT..if it some new kind of energy or transportation...you can bet exxonmobil texaco..ect..etc will call their dog(george w bush) to get rid of the intruder....

should wait til 2004 when GORE wins:D

damn, can\'t wait until 2002

I wonder if it\'s those damn flying cars we were promised 30 years ago but never recieved?

Er, maybe not. It would be cool if what they were talking about had something to do with those quantum teleportation demonstrations at Cal-Tech and Innsbruck Michael Crichton wrote about in his book Timeline. That definately would have serious impacts on the way corperations carry out buisness and all but put the shipping companies out of buisness. (Which would make life easier on all of us, expecially those who have to share the highway with them)

It could be vaporware also. It would be nice if it was based on quantum physics. Anyone remember the show Quantum Leap? Yeah...It ruled:)

Hahaha!!  I still love this commercial by IBM on the subject.  Cracks me up each time I see it.

As for the invention, it better not be some stupid new special browser like AOL which has all these useless customizations and blah blah blah...

they are saying some pretty serious stuff about it...steve jobs got apple out of the grave..should we trust his word?


either way, if IT is what i think IT is(and you guys already meantioned it) then....expect HEAVY resistance from many large corporations asking goverment(aka:big brother) to never let us use it....if that\'s the case, we do not deserve this mans invention.

Sounds VERY interesting... Ginger.. why Ginger? :)

Hmmm... could it be some kind of teleportation device? I thought of the codename "Metro" ( the other model )...

and if it\'s so secret it\'ll have to be something revolutionary...

and to Sonyfan... hover-cars are going to mass-marketing soon. Inside ten years, so I\'ve heard... the prototypes have been made and tested, now they just wait a good time to start mass-marketing the revolutionary product... the first models will cost a lot...

Hmmm... I haven\'t heard much of them but they\'re called very simply "skycars".

Even the news here showed some video on the testings... looked really interesting.. flying cars...

Yeah Cygnus I heard about that.But some guy calculated that it might take more energy than our sun produces in it\'s entire life to form a stable warp field.
They have also made a very crude transporter.They were able to transport 2 photons from one room to the next.

I think it is a tranporter or something a long those lines. The articles says that new cities will have to be built around these devices and that there is going to be a consumer version also. I am going to ask around MIT and Harvard to see if I can find out anything about it.

BTW, I know a lot of researchers at those two schools. I was going to go into robotics and/or AI in college and spent time there during High School. It was like an internship (sort of)

I met him 15 years ago, I was told there was nothing left, no reason, no concious, no understanding and even the most rudamentory sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong, I met this 6 year old child with this blang pale emotionless face and, the blackest eyes, the devils eyes, I spent 8 years trying to reach him, and then another 7 trying to keep him locked up because I realised what was living behind that boys eyes was purly and simply evil.

Is that source you gave us, Cygnus, for real? I mean... Warp drives etc. Sounds too Star Trek to me :)

Interesting if there\'s even a bean of truth hidden in that text...

Very interesting indeed...

You\'re correct also Noone, but like the text said, there has been discovered a new source of power. Hmmm... when do the photon-torpedoes come? The future is beginning to look Trekky... Star Trekky... :laughing:

If you, Cygnus, have another hidden source-taps please post them here. I\'m very interested on these rumors and fact-phased science...
