    If you have ever watched "The Glass Bottom Boat" with Doris Day, or the Ma and Pa Kettle movie where they win a brand new automatic house, you will recognize many of the things in this video. While this kitchen never actually came to fruition, many of the features are actually now incorporated into our modern everyday conveniences, such as flat screen TV, Baby monitor, microwave/convection cooking, robot vacuum cleaners, refrigerator shelving that raises and lowers on a conveyor type pulley, cell phones etc.

      Only it mops! Can you imagine having to change the water? Maybe it empties and refills water automatically, but that’s a lot of parts going into a wall. I’d hate to pay a plumber to come fix it when it f’s up.

      Well, the "Whirlpool Miracle Kitchen" sounds good and on the surface, looks very convenient to use. But with all those gadgets preparing many different meals, dispensing many different drinks and washing dishes etc... How much time is spent refilling, rotating out expired food and reprogramming it for different meals? Seems like they traded one convenience for a different drudgery. But I guess if someone could afford something like that back then, they could afford to pay someone to do it for them.

      I remember the first electric calculator my dad bought. It was a Ti (Texas instruments) in 1973. He paid $130 for it, and it was nothing special. The same as you'd get at the dollar store today for $1.45, except much heavier.

      I remember being in 7th grade when Texas instruments came out with the first portable handheld calculator. I remember our math teacher getting pissed and telling us. Oh, you’re not gonna have calculators on you to do math problems when you get out in the real world. Lol but by golly we do we all have smart phones with calculators with us everywhere we go.
