I think "Missive phonographique" is showing someone being delivered an audio telegram engraved on a phonographic cylinder.

Ohhh... so it's like a voicemail? sweatdrop


Exactly.

"Audition du Journal" isn't someone recording, it's someone playing back. These people are listening to a newspaper.

So... that'd work like the radio, then. o.o


Not really radio. It's not a broadcast. It's more like the "Missive phonographique", only instead of a message, it's more like a newsletter.

I love these. Heating with radium tickles me senseless.

Okay Bad Example

My goodness. Did the Germans actually? believe we were going to pull buildings with trains?

Reminds me of an ice-cream shop around here, Malley's, that has a carousel platform in the center with seating that rotates slowly.

"Bewegliche Häuser" - mobile houses, but that looks more like a bunch of shops than residential homes.

The idea is interesting, a mobile block of buildings. And we could do it, no problem, but what purpose would it serve?

We could move the buildings away from earthquakes/volcanoes/tornados/godzilla?

I shop at Schwanns. It's a truck that comes through our neighborhood and sells wonderful goodies, from dinners to desserts.

Think this, but on a town basis. What if your favorite store came from New York to your hometown once a week?

That would actually be pretty cool.
