[quote=Keyguyperson] That's somewhat of a change from your earlier stance on it, but I never intended the whole flying boat thing to work. Even with the technology, it would bankrupt the entire world. Besides, if you actually look at the numbers, nothing could fly in any sort of efficient way using steam power. Funnily enough, you could propel a craft using man power if it was small enough. However, I remember you saying flight was okay, did you change your mind? Either way, I just realized that I forgot to change the name of the lifting system. While hydrogen was known at the time, I doubt anybody would come up with a way to capture it and then decide to shove it in a huge piece of cloth.Of course, I am confused on flight, is it pointless as in there's no practical reason for it, or pointless because you won't allow it/will murder everyone involved? [/quote] I said flight and other inventions will come around with my say so. If I wasn't clear I apologise. This is what the great persons and the trait 'Natural Great Men' is for, for inventors to appear. I have no problems with you investigating that however all has got to come up fruitless for the time being.
