Hey, thats my school! I am going to take that class next year!  It's  the same school that the dude who designed the Monster went to.

I think you ran back your clock on your computer (rather the DMF's clock) by two minutes!

Just kidding!  [laugh] I concede, mine's the derby. In my defense, I did do a search, but I should have used "Yamaha" or something.  :-[

Definitly cool, but I'm not sure what the point is.   ???  It's no good for high speed (too upright ... not aero), and its too big for crowded spaces (ala Segway). 

I guess it could be used as an amusement park ride!  [laugh]

It is supposed to sprawl out at speed. I saw some of the other renderings. It would be awsome.  the one thing that I still don't get though is how you would stabilize it. Since it works with the pnumatic muscles, it would have to "skate" witch could get pretty violent at 75 mph....so it seems.  I dont know though it could be cool
