&#$%@&#$* wipers

Why is that we can have super-colliders exploring alternate universes, magnetically levitating trains, probes mapping every square kilometer of our neighboring planets, earthquake-resistant skyscrapers, animated movies that put millions of individual hairs on monsters, and those can openers that cut around the sides of a can but we can’t get a damn windshield wiper that actually wipes the snow off a windshield without my having to get out of the car three times and bang on it?

    Piezoelectric film coating the windshield should help this problem.

    They talk about this very thing in a book called “Raising the Titanic”, I forget the author.

    You use a sine wave to make the piezoelectric vibrate at 1000 times per second or so, nothing will stick to it. I dont know if there are any transparent piezoelectrics out there though.
