Now What?
Such a novel concept… everyone wins.
Using the sun to create energy is a really dumb stupid idea.
For the sake of our planet, let’s hope it’s sooner than later.
None of the parts for this road-thingie are durable, cheap or simple enough.
I would like to introduce these concepts to African governments.
The idea is more insane than space elevators.
I would like to buy some stock. Thank you.
How long until hackers put a giant penis on the road?
It restores a glimmer of hope to sad eyes.
This concept is fundamentally stupid.
Well it's about #*@% time!
