Mobility in the 21st Century

When someone sent me this video with tagline “the future of mobility,” I lit into it like a hungry bear going after a salmon. After all, I’m convinced that our civilization is in the process of completely rethinking the concept of personal mobility, and that the paradigm that will win the day of the mid-21st Century will show scant resemblance to the 20th Century concept: big, wasteful hunks of iron parked in our garages during the 23 hours a day they’re not belching toxins into our atmosphere and enriching terrorist regimes.

Though the concept here is hardly persuasive, you can’t fault the purveyors of the idea for making such an assertion. And besides, it’s a neat, well-made video.
