Cool T-shirts too.

Now the US army has taken it up as a battlefield cargo delivery system but I reckon if they eventually make these for personnel transport Army recruitment would go up heaps.

A 'cage' is still a 'cage' even if it flys. Great movie in its day though!

The Arabs and Persians were onto a good idea centuries ago -
One of the stories in the One Thousand and One Nights relates how Prince Husain, the eldest son of Sultan of the Indies, travels to Bisnagar (Vijayanagara) in India and buys a magic carpet.[1] This carpet is described as follows: "Whoever sitteth on this carpet and willeth in thought to be taken up and set down upon other site will, in the twinkling of an eye, be borne thither, be that place nearhand or distant many a day's journey and difficult to reach."[2]

But like today's 'Fake News' an idiot or supposedly some academic will still believe what is written to be fact just because it is written. They all forget 'Spin' and BS was invented before language even existed.
