And of course this had to happen on the Mass Pike.
1 Indian Rupee ($0.02 U.S.)
15 Thai Baht ($0.36 U.S.)

This is one of the biggest nostalgia sites I have seen with just about any pop culture trivia from the 60s to the 90s.
I spent way too much time on the 80s tv section.

You can read the text here or see the pages from the magazine here.
Nowadays our lungs and rib cages are allowed to develop into the shape nature intended, allowing us a greater lung capacity and overall better health than our ancestors. Our happily un-compressed inner organs allow us the health and strength to carry a child to term as well as survive the delivery. Fainting couches and smelling salts are things of the past.
The truth comes out.
Larry Niven takes a closer look:
One sperm arrives before the others. It penetrates the egg, forms a lump on its surface. The cell wall now thickens to prevent other sperm from entering. Within the now fertilized egg, changes take place…
And ten million kryponite sperm arrive slightly late.
Were they human sperm, they would be out of luck. But these tiny blind things are more powerful than a locomotive. A thickned cell wall won’t stop them. They will all enter the egg, obliterating it entirely in an orgy of microscopic gang rape. So much for artifical insemination.
