He would have ruined a first name for generations, though.

What I don't understand is why the AT ends in Maine, given that the Appalachians don't end there. If you keep going into Canada, you will see Caribous!

Some people believe we're going from normal cars to self-driving cars. For me, it's obvious that the rise of self-driving cars is going to be a series of incremental changes. For example, we are already seeing a few options like keeping the driver from doing a dangerous line change or braking instantly to avoid a collision. An other example is cruise control slowing down to avoid a collision, so that all you have to do is the steering.

The next step could be limited self-driving capabilities: you are on the highway, and you hit the autonomous driving button so that the steering wheel is also automated. The car will maintain speed, will change lane when it makes sense, etc.

Then we can see self-driving cars in parking lots. It leaves you at the door, and it goes park itself wherever.

And finally, entirely self-driving cars. You set your destination, and enjoy the drive. The shape of cars will change at this point, as facing forward becomes less and less a necessity, whereas room and entertainment becomes important. It will however take 15-20 years of research before these cards are functional in less than stellar conditions: snowed in road, cameras and other detectors covered in thick ice, crazy cyclists, pedestrians randomly jumping on the road, people trying to rear end you, etc. We've been promised AI for a very long time, yet we're still very far from it. Self-driving cars would have a much easier time is all cars needed to be self-driven, and maybe we'll need laws for this. Those that are going to have political power and money in 20 years are currently in their 40s and may still have qualms with technologies. It will take 30-40 years before the average redditor is a politician!

Methyl Anthranaylate is naturally found in the grapes from what I understand. It's just that when you isolate it, it doesn't taste anything like grapes. I guess you could dose it using some kind of chromatography and compare it to wine made from grapes with no added MA.
