Daring attempt, sleek-looking car, but maybe too much ahead of its time. Note that Williams F1 has been developing a less-ambitious flywheel-based hybrid system that they *might* race next year; here's to hoping!

Breaking the traditional helicopter speed limit -- on the cheap. Impressive!

Same price as AVG (free), and less hassle!

I actually prefer the first photo in the series, but this quote is priceless:

The French writer-aviator Antoine De Saint-Exupéry considered the P-38 "a flying torpedo that has nothing whatever to do with flying and, with all its dials and buttons, makes its pilot a sort of chief accountant."

Plus # 22 encourages you to use your body. Uh, post-modern irony is only funny when the subject is not serious. I wonder who came up with this crazy list.
