When you think about changes in other areas of our life, transportation is pretty much the same as it was years ago. OK, cars, trains and 2) are faster, but they’re not so different than they were 3) years ago. Take airplanes, for example. I think air travel has got worse. Fifty years ago, people flew and were given great 4) . Today, you are like sardines in a can. And look at cars. The cars from fifty years ago look nicer than today’s ones. They still had four wheels, used petrol and had a steering wheel. I think transportation will really only change when it becomes more 5) . I’m waiting for my own jet pack of mini-copter.
