Default Buy Moller's old Junk! No, seriously!

So OK... if the M-400 is the Sky "Car", then is this thing the Sky
"Cycle"?

No wait... that was the name of the goofy rocket-thingie Evel Kenevil
parachuted into the Snake river.

Then would it be the Air Bike? Noooo... the Air Bike actually flies...

Its kinda doughnut shaped... maybe we could call it the "Homer"? It
DOES have a bubble-dome!

Curiously enough, there was another "SkyCar" long before Moller. Try
googling "John Pitts skycar". You probably won't find any photos on the
web, but if you watch the Hitler Channel, you've seen it. It looks like
a Jeep with a giant picnic-table umbrella that ocilates up and down. It
hops around and thrashes about, but never really leaves the gorund.
Sound familiar?

Hmmm...strange. I went back to check the ebay listing. "ivalid item"
"been removed by ebay".

Gee, did someone tip them off to the scam?

Doubt it. E-bay doesn't care if you sell your mother-in-laws false teeth.

Last I read, it didn't meet reserve, even with a 3 million bid. I wonder what
he hopes to get for it, and I wonder who the 3 million dollar fool was!

Definitely gone. Looks like eBay did the sensible thing.
