Today on
Modern Mechanix we have an
psychic automaton from 1924 that reads your thoughts through the "radioplasm". The same page also has a prediction for personal radios that sound a lot like cell phones. Looking for a BBQ or trash burner that doesn't ruin the rustic look of your backyard? Check out this concrete
tree stump cooker. In 1950 someone decided to cross a balloon with a kite, and came up with a
Kytoon. We also have an article titled "
Scientific Hoaxes that Have Fooled the World" as well as a machine that makes
ice cream instantly. Lastly we have very odd, unbalanced looking
concept car that looks like it was made by welding together the fronts of two other cars.
"Keely Motor", the Steorn of 1898.
