As Juice suggested above, predictions that an invention will never be widely used have two strikes against them.
First, it's hard to determine how the invention will change and improve in the future. And then you have to predict how well the people of the future will embrace it. Will it be cool enough (or publicized enough) to catch on? If so, will it become an everyday thing or just a fad or novelty item?

Never been to "The Hump" but I have been to it's sister restaurant "Typhoon," (downstairs, same owner) which is infamous for offering insects on the menu. Unlike the whale meat, the crickets and water bugs were obtained legally.

Do they make a pattern that says "Now you've been and gone and done it!" when it gets stained? I'd buy one.

Here's my take on most of the Alice in Wonderland treatments I've seen.
So many seem to be screaming "Look how crazy/wacky MY version is...!"

I think it's legit-
The dog bolted away from the direction of the shaking.
My cockatiel can quakes a few seconds before I can too.
Even the wimpiest ones freak him out.

That's cool!
Had I been born without arms, I can picture myself sulking my life away about all the things I [assumed I] couldn't do. I'm glad Jessica was more ambitious. I'll have to remember her the next time I think "I can't do X because of Y."

Hi MadMolecule,
I'm not a menorah expert, but I believe a lot of them come with an extra candle holder for a special candle that's used for lighting the other eight.

When I was a kid (1970s) my grandma used to warn me about going barefoot because "President Calvin Coolidge's boy got a blister from going barefoot and he got blood poisoning and died!"
She didn't point out that this happened fifty years earlier, before antibiotics were used to treat infections. To this day I don't know if she was serious or just messing with me.

"They really are amazing, problem-solving squish monsters." - Natey put it pefectly.
Watching that film is a trip. It's funny seeing such an alien creature doing something almost human- sneaking around with his stealth shell, hiding in it, and looking to see if the coast is clear.

Juice is a good observer.
American Robins were named after the European ones because both have a red chests, but they're not closely related. American Robins are in the thrush family, while European Robins are closer related to flycatchers.
