Absolutely amazing! I could envision an entire semester's college course using just this as the curriculum. But the animation, gorgeous. Seriously. Best quote: "As in the past, the highways of the future will continue to play a vital role in the progress of civilization. It will our magic carpet to new hopes, new dreams, and a better way of life for the future." http://tinyurl.com/yz292r7 Amazing! Absolutely amazing!
