Oh, yeah. That thing was cool, too. I think it was rehydrating or something like that.

Oh and a nuke powered car that uses garbage as fuel. I mean that solves soooo many things.

Robots helpers for the house. You watch those "World of TOMORROW!" things they made in the 50s and 60s and they were constantly promising that we'd have robots that could do housework. Now half a century on, where's my damn robot!
And jetpacks! I want to come home in my jetpack and be greeted at the door by my housework robot!

Give a man a fire, and you keep him warm for a day. SET a man on fire, and you will keep him warm for the rest of his life...
