Marcie and I went to the San Jose Tech museum today and they had a Segway out that people could try out and ride around. It was pretty interesting. It felt so strange that the thing wouldn't tip over. The first 5 seconds I stood on it, my mind didn't trust that it was stable. But, after only a few seconds, it was extremely easy to turn and move around, both forwards and backwards. A pretty amazing piece of engineering actually.
