NASA Sponsoring $2M Flying Car Contest

One day soon, there will even be Sunday drivers crashing down into your roof because one of these days we'll be commuting via flying cars, the only kind of vehicle that is bound to burn more fuel than even the Chevy Suburban:

"Despite the skepticism that justly confronts any mention of a 'flying car,' what with the disaster that expecting people who can barely drive a car to learn to fly a personal plane would be, NASA seems pretty optimistic about the idea. In fact, they're holding a $2 million contest to entice people to design flying cars. And this isn't just an exercise, either; NASA really expects up to 45% of travel to be done by flying cars (or PAVs, Personal Air Vehicles) in the future."
