We're lucky we have cars or electricity at all. For every kind of energy source there is, you have a vocal group of people against it with a laundry list of reasons as to why it's terrible. If that sort of opposition had been around 100-120 years ago, we'd be in the local bar chatting about our velocipedes instead now.

Seatbelts posted:Arabs don't need any lazy western innovation I've seen them drive for a minute or so like that over there, but never that long. And how the hell do they balance with people climbing and moving all over the car? It also amazes me that the suspension and axles and tires just hold the entire weight of the car on the tips of two wheels for so long.

Transparent aluminum exists in two forms right now. http://blog.makezine.com/2012/01/17/transparent-aluminum/ This is a form made from aluminum ceramic powder that is completely clear, can be made into sheets or any form, and can stop bullets. This one was just invented last year, and is made of actual aluminum foil, though it's impractical and expansive for any practical use yet. http://gajitz.com/science-you-so-crazy-transparent-aluminum-made-in-lab/

What always amazes me about those Cuban cars is how nicely they are painted, and how good the bodywork is (or appears), all straight lines and very well taken care of. I have no idea if a tropical climate is that much better for rust than a bit more north, as I suppose you'd have higher humidity, but those cars always look great.
