I have to wonder how your brain would have handled ICE engines in their infancy, heavier than air aircraft, re-usable rockets or the development of electricity into a life essential. Developing new tech for commercial applications rarely goes as smoothly as the developer hopes. But then, if the developer wasn't optimistic he would just stick with the herd and keep relying on the tech that he was born with.

Don't forget to mention hydrogen dirigibles, flying wings (actually a good design IMO), steam powered cars, gyro-copters, canals built by nuclear bombs, Jarts, and many others I've forgotten. An open mind is good, but it's also good to have reservations. Otherwise you won't find an open table when you get to the restaurant. :)
