   That was a fun read. Thanks for digging that one out.

   It’s curious how the author(s) predicted a series of tubes will solve the problems of the future:
   - Store purchases by tube
   - Hot and cold air by spigots from central plants in cities
   - Hot and cold foods will be served to private houses by pneumatic tubes

   Could you imagine what an eyesore all those above-ground tubes and pipes would be? It’s hard enough to sink all the basic utilities underground and maintain them throughout the hot/cold cycle seasons.

   Noticeably missing:
   - Tubes as people movers (Futurama)
   - Flying cars (I want my flying car, dang it!)
