Na chacha raaz ki baat kati konya. Lekin I am surprised you didn't know. :p
But you'll still have to guess it chacha. I'll just give the following hint:

As of current knowledge and health risk assessments, there are no Surgeon
General's WARNINGS against it. ;) ;) ;)

:eek:

Coming back to the essence of the thread, I think the following look more feasible to me -

1. Some form of MRTS. Imagine a vast, well organised labyrinthine network of under/over/on ground tracks running fast trains. Current maglev (magnetic levitation) trains run at speeds in access of 450 kmph. e.g. Shanghai transrapid.

2. modern radio controlled , route programmable cars running on 'magnetic' super highways. You would just need to program the destination and they'll find out the best route and get u there. They will have detailed city (scable to state/country/world ?) maps (think google/yahoo maps or mapquest !). They'll use GPS to ascertain where they are. No drivers will be necessary. These cars will avoid accidents by remaining in their designated lanes and 'talking' to other cars in front (and behind) them. (Think a simple infrared obstacle detector robot !) Because there's no human factor in navigation, these cars will be able to achive speeds in access of 200 mph. There will be protocols for lane change and exits and simple wireless transcevers in the cars will be able to understand that.

3. The above idea will extend to super airways (as also suggested by others). Where flying cars will be able to 'cruise' at high speeds. One of the main problems with aviation technology is takeoff and landing. Modern VTOL aircrafts are not efficient and runways are not practical. I think instead of personal air-cars, it would be more feasible to have a MRTS based on these vehicles. they can then run just like the trains on predesignated routes. The rail stations will be repalced by small takeoff/ landing ports (I won't call them airports as they'll be much smaller) and airways with replace tracks.

Ideas ?

Sir,the thing you are talking about is now possible by telepresence...It will be audio, video conferencing as well as a connecting tht might bring revolution in the present world... telepresence will make possible tht robots on the remote end can copy the actions of the person at home end via communication link. It is going to have vast applications in field of medicine, astronomy n geology. The secrets of nature which r still burried in the space would come out with telepresence.
