  1. If the US election cycle was shorter, politicians would not spend ungodly amounts of money on campaigns
  2. What is more valuable – money or time?  Would you pay more to get more time, or get more money?
  3. Will the internet deliver on its promise to democratize?
  4. Quick nutritious meals for teens
  5. What is the downside of being on summertime all year-long?
  6. Will driverless cars be most efficient in NYC’s one way systems?
  7. Every major intersection should have a left-hand, right-hand and straight ahead lane.
  8. Go back to paper photos.
