    Transparent Aluminum

    I am sure most people on here watched Star Trek 4 with the whales. Scotty gave the owner of a glass company the then unknown formula for transparent aluminum to replace glass. Making the owner a very rich man. It may not be science fiction any more.

    I first saw that in theaters when I was a kid, and to this day I still pick up my mouse and say, "Hello, computer."

    I love that movie.
