    @OMG! Ponies!: That statement simply deals with unpredictability in complex systems. The shorthand is the Butterfly Effect. A butterfly can flap its wings in Peking and in Central Park you get rain instead of sunshine. #toyotatacomaatgxbox

    Ok, I was going to rail against gullwing doors on concept cars. No manufacturer is going to market a car with gullwing doors, why do they keep making these ridiculous concept vehicles that have them? They should be mocked relentlessly.

    But this... really this thing mocks itself. No one could imagine they would be dumb enough to actually produce it. So whatever, have fun with the doors because they are no more irrelevant than any other part of the concept. #toyotatacomaatgxbox

    see? you wussy vegetarian hippies with your irrational fear of nuclear power have caused the global warming you claim to rally against.

    Sooo is anyone else puzzled as to how you would actually run a car based on nuclear power? I don't know how one could really get a car running with the torque and horsepower with what is really just a super badass (and slightly radioactive) steam engine.
