Default Al Gore - BBC

Yesterday, I read about that Urbee printed car, 8 horsepower 1 cylinder
engine, 70 miles per hour, and the Ford electric bicycle.When I was at
Scott Air Force Base,Illinois in 1963 I bought a 1957 BMW Isetta car
from an Air Force Officer.The car had a 1 cylinder air cooled engine,
about 7 or 8 horsepower, top speed about 45 miles per hour.

When I go shopping nowadays I stay on the slowpoke back roads, driving
35 or 40 or 45 miles per hour is more than fast enough for me.I am
always ahead of the people behind me.
