OK, I think most of people forgot about the project "Ginger". It was a hype about this "Ginger" project early this year. The inventor, Dean Kamen, claims that "Ginger" will revolutionize the inner city travel with this device. No one knows what this "Ginger" really is.

If you see Southpark last week, "IT" is suppose to make fun of "Ginger". Also, in the early phase of "Ginger", it was really called "IT". Isn't it funny.

here is a link for more in depth read,

I seem to recall a joke about "IT" being one of those little scooters you see on MTV all the time... that'd be funny

"IT" is a scooter!

That's even funnier...

Why do I have a feeling this will be somehow incredibly successful and Dean Kamen, multimillionaire inventrepreneur, will end up being more wealthy?

I remember Ginger. I thought it was a steam powered scooter or something like that. Guess it was all speculation and he's really going to unvail it now.

I saw the SouthPark episode, but I didn't realize that they were referring to Ginger. It was funny when he demonstrated how it had to be operated.
