Title: 299,792,458 meters per second too slow?
Post by: Shecky on November 05, 2006, 06:29:37 PM
I'm concerned about not having enough time to get where I need to be and do what I have to do. I figure if I could just get there quicker, I'd make plenty of time to handle other things, like Zelda which is going to take forever in itself. So, I figure in order to gain enough time, traveling roughly 299,792,458 meters per second between tasks may do the trick. Thoughts?
I assure you that this is not ludicrous. ;)
Sorry VGrevolution. It's just when I read your thread title a certain quote from a certain movie came to mind ;)

Speaking of teleportation, That movie The Prestige had a messed up take on it.

Sure, the Wii only costs $249.99, but how much will a house to play it in cost? $250,000? $300,000? What about getting to that job of yours? $4000 minimum. Cars will take too long to get home, so how much will that teleportation chamber cost you? $1,000,000 to build and $40,000,000 in research?
So sure it's "cheap," but the real cost is more like $41,550,249.99!
