Answering Interview Question:
In the future, what do you foresee people driving? Or do you think that gas prices will exceed 10 dollars a gallon and no one will be driving?

Actually, I had to write an essay on this subject for an English class (community college) in 1975. We had to predict what people would be doing/driving at the turn of the century (25 years hence).

Well, I said cars would have 4 wheels, 2 or 4 doors, would run on gasoline, have windows and bumpers -- pretty much as they had in 1975.

I nearly flunked that assignment. I wasn't using enough imagination. Certainly everything would change drastically over 25 years. Fred Reid, my least favorite college prof, told me that, at the very least, we'd have light rails for cars to connect to which would take us wherever we wanted to go and we'd just sit back and let the car follow the track.

Looking around, I can see ol' Freddy boy was right."
