    1. I think the expanding table will be around fifty years from now.
    2. I think the 3D table pong game will most likely catch on.
    3. If I had the money, I would buy the Canadian milk pitcher because I love me some milk.
    4.The most useless invention on here is the hovercraft.
    5.The most stupidest invention I have ever seen is clothes.

  4. The invention that I think will be around in 50 years is the expanding table. The one I think that will 'catch on' is the homemade flying hovercraft. People have been trying to fly other on a plane for years and it now seems possible. The one I would purchase would definately be the hovercraft. I would use it all the time because it seems like a lot of fun. The most stupid invention I saw was the cat lift. Cats can perfectly climb on their own, they dont a lift to help them get anywhere.

  6. 1.) I think the expanding table will be around in 50 years from now because its convient and looks very classy!

    2.) I believe the raptor cheerleader eater will catch on, i've already heard a few people rant about it.

    3.) I would definatly buy the 3D table pong RIGHT NOW TODAY. it would be a good waste of time.

    4.) I think the caffeine soup is the stupidest invention. How would you know if you have used enough or too much? if people really love caffeine that much, go to starbucks.

    5.) The chinese farmer innovations are very cool. haha i would just love to shape my fruits as buddhas!

  7. 1. 50 years from now I hope the Car Tank will be around.

    2. I think it will catch on because it would be a better way to drive in the snow, and on icy roads. It could prevent many car accidents.

    3. Today, if they sold it in stores I would purchase the Caffeine Soap.

    4. I would have to say that the cat lift is probably the dumbest invention.

  8. 1. I think the window farm will be around in 50 years, because I think people will get too lazy to farm, and they'll make everyone else make their own corn. 2. I think this will catch on because as we 'evolve' in technology, people who farm are going to want to evolve too. 3. I would purchase the caffiene soap, because my mom doesnt like coffee, so its never made, and i need to be awake...for school. The stupidest thing is the cat lift, because what if your cat missteps? Its DIES.

  9. 1. I think the disappering car door will be around for 50 years.
    2. I think mostly every rich person and every human being will want it when it gets noticed more.
    3. If i had money right now i would pick to get that masscot suit.
    4. I think the 3d table pong was the stupidest thing on here because its not realistic at all or look to fun.

  12. 1.)The robotic arm will probably be around for a long time. Whenever a Jedi lost his arm, he got a robotic arm and it wasn't a big deal.
    2.)I think it will catch on because people would like their arms back.
    3.) I would buy the Boston Dynamics Big Dog because it is one of the scariest things I've ever seen.
    4.)Canadian Milk. I can tell you why they don't have it in the US. Americans are never going through that much work to get milk. Just isn't gonna happen.

  13. 1. I think the robotic arm is gonna stick around.

    2. I think it will catch on because of the need for prosthetic limbs,and I think that it will be developed into legs and improve over time.

    3. I would buy the hexacopter.

    4.Im gonna say the most useless invention on here would have to be the canadian milk bag. Why cant they drink milk like normal people!

  16. 1. The Deka Arm will be around for easily more than 50 years from now.

    2. People are losing arms everyday.

    3. The Deka Arm or the 3D Pong, because; 1, I really like robotics, and 2, The Pong would be fun to have because like the arm you could use it everyday, and it could bring people together.

    4.The most useless invention on here is the Caffeine Soap, it probably doesn't even work, it would just wash off and you would smell disgusting.

  18. 1) i think the expanding table, and the jet water pack and the robo snow plow.
    2)i think the table will catch one just cuz its cool, and its an easy way to have a transition from a big table to a little table. and the jet pack because i think it will catch on cuz it looks fun and is like flying it seems. and then the robo snow plow cuz its helpful.
    3)i would buy the table cuz i would show off to my friends and it would be great for christmas or thanksgiving when you need more room to sit and eat.
    4)and i think the stupidest one will have to be the new thread needle.. but thats just cuz i dont sowe anything..

  22. 1. I think the invisable car door will be around in 50 years.
    2. This is because we are lazy and obsessed with technology!
    3. I would use the hovercraft or water jet. I would go buy one because it would be super fun!
    4. I think the big robot thing that just walks around is useless. What does it do?
    5. I don't know any others. Some others that I really liked were the Deka arm, and expandable table.

  24. 2.) I think museums and galleries should advertise themselves more to get an increase in attraction. Maybe posters in coffee shops or on the side of the street could help or commercials on the t.v or radio. They could even make themselves seem like a big attraction, like a "must go" place.

  25. So, I don't know if this counts, but over the summer, my parents, my best friend and I went to Wisconsin. We went to a biodome, where there was 3 different domes. 1 had a tropical theme, one had a desert theme, and the last one had a safari theme. It was a pretty cool idea. And i think if more people knew about it, more people would go to it.

  26. 1).The catlift. Everybody should have one for their pets in case they're high above ground level as they climb on roof tops. That would teach them to notice the literary term "curiosity kills the cat".
    2). Maybe because of the expanding productivity of the invention and I think right now they're making millions.
    3). I would consider buying the catlift for my own three cats, Socks, M.J. the black Mancoon, and Olive the new kitten. But I think it'll be good use for Olive, since she's only six weeks old now and hasn't developed the safe skill of landing on her feet yet. I'm way overprotective for her. She's got lot's to learn in the future before she makes mischief out of herself by injuring her feet. She also has flexible thumbs, which is odd for some cats.
    4). Canadian's milk, give me a break! I suppose every nation has a way with producing milk in order to make it fresh. But why invent it just to compete against opposing countries that sell the most high grossing products. It's pointless, because Canada was only trying to be recognized as something greater. Their milk might as well taste the same. Milk is milk. They might've added too much preservatives and will end up tasting gross. Ekkk!

  28. Can I simply just say what a comfort to uncover an individual who truly
    understands what they're talking about over the internet. You actually know how to bring a problem to light and make it important. More people have to check this out and understand this side of your story. I can't believe you aren't more popular since you definitely have the gift.
