This lady is walking down the street with this big green umbrella, but there is NOT a cloud in the sky.
In fact, you can see in the upper right that it is a beautiful and clear sunny day.
Also, where she is walking, it is clearly shady and cool--so the umbrella is not needed as a sun screen either.
From a technology annoyance perspective, it is long past time to invent something more creative than a cheap, crappy umbrella--like from Charlie Chaplin and The Umbrella--to protect us from elements.
Someone, please come up with a push-button protective bubble that envelops us--clear for visibility, of course--and keeps us dry and temperate.
A beautiful, futuristic clear dome over the city would be nice too, but probably cost prohibitive and not as adjustable for each indiividual and their respective needs.
Hopefully, someday soon. ;-)
