 Re: Wild prediction of bizarre gadgets!!!
roofed city Dating all the way back to 1949, the roofed city was a prediction made by Professor Archibold Low. The concept represented mankind’s first attempt at controlling the weather. The idea was, in essence, to ***** a massive roof over all of New York City in order to try and control the weather. It isn’t hard to see the impracticality of this idea, as the roof would have to cover hundreds of square miles of city and would not be able to do much except block rain and snow. All the snow that would ultimately fall on the roof might get awful heavy too, no? Needless to say, there were many practical problems with the roofed city, and we still do not have anything like this today. |
