Futuristic for sure Jeff... an awesome caption "Shaping the Future"..
I can see Spacely and Cogswell arguing about who has the fastest aerocar- you know, the spacelike vehicles with the transparent bubble tops!
I know The Jetson's came out in 1962 to 1963 but they also remade it in the 80's - my fav cartoon!
You captured this PERFECTLY... thanks for the memories!!!!
