In anticipation of an upcoming plane ride with twins, Sweety and I bought the world's most ridiculously efficient strollers. I've always been fond of miniaturized camping equipment and the like. This is something else.

If they are to each have a name, you could call one "Perambulator" and the other "Bumbot." Neither of those sound like actual names, though; so, how about something like "Sed-optimus" and "Maxi-ped?" (Not to be confused with "maxi-pad.")

They would definitely be a newly evolved transformer only interested babies. They would take over the plane, believing that they could fly better than the pilot, making the flight safer with a soft landing, so as not to wake the (hopefully) sleeping babies.

No, I just didn't have time to do the research on it then. I've sent you a reply.

So *now* will you vote in my incredibly important poll?

I didn't really like either of the names very much -- one's too obvious, the other too silly -- but I couldn't think of anything better, either...
