if that's a legitimate fear that people are afraid about the rise of Islam I guess in the United States. I would say that I'm afraid of that because the Islamic system is such that it's built to dominate and usually there's a very clear plan to get more people, have more babies, carve out your own little area where you say, "Oh you know we'll be a little Muslim area." Next thing you know they're g…

t would be a weird play while they're talking about a peace deal. Or unless it's just in case things went bad or something. But doesn't it make you wonder how many Iranian terrorists are already in the United States. If there were eight of them in the UK and they were looking to do some big terror thing, there might be dozens of them, if not hundreds, in the United States because we haven't had border security until recently. So that's the thing I worry about the most is if we ended up being involved in some kind of a terror attack on, if we got involved in let's say working with Israel to attack the nuclear facilities in Iran. I feel like they would activate their terrorists and it would be a really bad week in America. So that does worry me.

Well in other science news, there are new scientific solar panels that are a thousand times stronger and thinner than a human hair and it's way more efficient, a thousand times more powerful than silicon, and way more durable according to the Bright Side of the News. Now I think I've told you before that all of these massive improvements in solar panels and fusion and batteries, you really have to think in terms of 5 to 20 years before any of this finds its way into the commercial world. But it's kind of exciting.

And then lastly, because it's May 4th, there's a company called, let's see who are they? It's a Polish firm. They've created this Star Wars styled airbike except it uses a jet engine. So it's like a flying motorcycle with a jet engine and it shows it looking really cool and flying over this desert area. And I'm thinking to myself, you kind of have to have your own desert, don't you? Because where exactly would you fly a jet powered motorcycle? You wouldn't do it in the suburbs. You couldn't do it in the city. You couldn't do it really anywhere. You couldn't do it over other people's property because they're really low. They're not way up in the air. They're like I don't know 20 feet up. So to me this seems like the worst commercial idea I've ever seen in my life. Although the technology looked pretty cool.

So all right, that's all I got for you today. Uh yeah it's also loud. Yeah I can't see that. That is a future but who knows? Maybe. Jay Leno has a jet motorcycle. He probably doesn't use it too much.

All right. Thanks for joining everybody. I'm going to talk to the locals people for just briefly. And the rest of you, thanks for joining. I'll see you same time tomorrow, same place.
