Another exotic engine
Seen so many promising "better" engines over the years that were never to be.

That is cool!
Please don't show me Popular Mechanics links. I'll end up following every interesting article on the page, and then I've wasted an entire day.

They also told us we'd be able to see people as we spoke with them on the phone and we'd be able to order stuff on the TV that would be shipped to our homes. They almost nailed that, as you can do both things with a smart phone.
