Hi
Thank you. I understand, i should have touched upon the evolution of transportation technologically in the second para. I could have mentioned from bullocks to steam engines and from there to fossil fuel engines and now jet engines. I could have also predicted teleportation as a future possibility.

Thank you once again. Don't know what i will do for the exam.
