That's Fox News' title for my column. I just called it "Daring."

The third in a trilogy, and I think that I'm overwraught, or at least
overWrighted...

No mas.

concept works, practical application
Automotive: Daimler-Benz ( 1886 ) Ford Model - T ( 1908 )

Uhh.. this is gross misstatement of the car business. Ford didn't
really make cars be widespread.

Aviation : Wright ( 1903 ) Glenn Curtis ( ~1909 ~1911 )
Space : Rutan ? ( 2004-5? ) blank ( 200x ? )

I wonder who will fill in the blank and when ?
BTW, there were equivalents of STS, EELVs etc. both in aviation and
automotive as well. Aviation: dirigibles, Langley & Co. hot air balloons,
steam cars and whatnot.
