O.k., I KNOW I’m old. I don’t need to be reminded that I’m old.
Confession: As soon as I saw the first comic panel, the theme from the 1966 Batman television show started playing in my head…“Bada-bada-bada-bada-bada-bada….BAT-MANNNNNN!” (BAM! POW! SLAM!).
Well, some crazy’s have actually gotten this to work, kind of. Now it’s the negative lift problem they have to solve. Maybe thermals like soaring with the eagles and California condors.
