On CCTV 9 in China there is a public service announcement that encourages people to do things like help an old lady who's fallen down or share your umbrella with someone who's getting drenched at a bus stop. Do we really need to be told this? I thought we had progressed from these points already...
I also just learned about a design for a concept car that would allow cars to communicate with each other. One example the program gave of the benefits of this technology would be that if you were speeding your pregnant wife to the hospital, you could use your credit card to pay the car in front of you to let you pass.
WHAT?!?
This is PROGRESS? Is this really the culmination of human effort? I wonder if there will be a way to haggle the price of that...
Speaking strictly for me- if your car tells mine that your wife needs to get to the hospital, by all means... pass!
