Hmm,
Interesting perspective. Of course I know why we don't have the flying cars. Too many dumb $hit$ out there who still haven't mastered driving with just an X and Y axis to deal with. Make driving a 3d activity and carnage and mayhem will be frequently used words during traffic reports.

Good. That would be an excellent way to get rid of crappy drivers.

Yes, but will they take my family out with them. It wouldn't be suicide but fratricide.

Just think of the evolution of the machines he's been hooked to for all these years! And hospital rooms. Ambulances. He's quadriplegic, and they've got tons more mobility options for him now.
Just waking up to a full-grown daughter who could've graduated high school and done the prom thing and is perhaps in college...wow.

I swear I thought you said "done the porn thing," until I went and re-read that.
Just imagine what he's going to SEE when he walks outside!! The clothing differences, the hair styles, the cars... people he remembers now being 20 years older! Just... freaky. I mean... Superman is now a quadriplegic, too!
Think of all the celebrities who have died, who have been born, whose careers change. I mean... he's missed 2 presidents and most of Regan. The Iran Contra scandal. He'll still think Iraq is an ally to us.
Tieneman Square, the Berlin Wall, 9/11, Challenger and Columbia, the rise and fall of the stock market... not being able to get leaded gas in most places.
And talk about sticker shock!!
I do NOT envy the long, long road he's got in front of him, but, it IS pretty impressive that he came out of it!

BBC had a great Reagan quote that I'd never heard. Quote:
In 1984, Ronald Reagan stated during a soundcheck for his weekly radio address: "My fellow Americans. I'm pleased to tell you that I've signed legislation that will outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes."

Umm..okay, I know I'm gonna get reamed for this, but here goes....
Seriously, if I were in this position I would want to die. I mean come on. I'm in a coma for 19 years and then I wake up a quadraplegic!! So what I can talk! That's just seriously wrong. Life is just too cruel sometimes. There is really nothing enlightening about the story in my opinion.

I dunno. I figure this will all make a good Disney movie in about 10 years.
