Beyond Freedom and Dignity?

If B.F. Skinner designed human rat boxes….
Here’s the ultimate warm fuzzy PC mobile for…. hmmmmm, what’s the equivalent of an automotive tree hugger? A road hugger? No, I don’t think so. Anyway, look at this, this thing:

” The p.o.d (personalization on demand) redefines ergonomics. When you approach, it ?smiles? and opens its door. It actively monitors driving style and mood and adjusts accordingly. If the conversation is lively, it photographs the moment. It even wags its antenna when it’s happy.”

It’s ugly and weird. It’s fascist. The seats look to me like dentist chairs, and I would seriously distrust having anyone who’d want one of these things near me.
I have been having a ball down here in Nashville, and I don’t think too many of the real people around here would buy an undignified car like the damnable “p.o.d.”
Hideous!
It is an affront to automotive dignity, and to American dignity, if not human dignity. (Unfortunately, that means certain people might just buy it.)

UPDATE: I was still pissed off after posting this, so I elaborated to James Rummel about the “certain people” who’d buy this insidious monstrosity. Cities like Berkeley, California would buy them for the bureaucrats. So would the people who busy themselves building a better world in which we should all be forced to live. Finally, they’d be bought by the ineffectual hordes who cannot drive like normal people but nonetheless derive a collective feeling of smug superiority by banding together with fellow inferiors, looking to each other for mutual support and comfort. Inferiority can be very dangerous when it gives rise to such thinking. Look at the French! Look at Communism. Nazism. Radical Islam. Mob thinking almost always finds origin in one sort of inferiority complex or another, but it is late at night and I am getting off topic. (This is philosophy or something, and I only wanted to complain about a stupid car.)
