People will give up driving cars eventually— it will only be a matter of when— no accidents and no death is a pretty good motivator, as well as the other benefits.. As processing speeds increase, it will be like saying that someone today would multiply 20,584 x 13,567,450 manually instead of using a calculator..

When I try to multiply large numbers like that, all I get is a bunch of numbers followed. a large E.

So I have to get a piece of paper to figure it out

I wonder How student Sharapunda would deal with it?
