If Al Gore had won the election, things would be very different indeed.

If AL GORE had won, we would all be in Electric Cars and gasoline cars would be OUTLAWED. Of course, we could only go 25 miles between recharges. Would take 2 or 3 months to go across the country, just like the WAGON TRAIN days!

And my jet pack!

They got the induction range thing right, though.

Electric vehicles can go much farther between charges...

Yup, and they can be butt ugly the whole way there. (unless you have a Tesla)

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think H2's are the ugliest damned things I've ever seen, but think a Prius is a nice, slick looking vehicle (If a bit too small for my taste).

And they figured by the year 2000 we would all be speaking the Czech language?
(The Czech Republic is a beautiful country to visit, by the way.)
