Pneumatic elevator for your home. This is fairly, if not extremely gimmicky, but it really makes me wonder why pneumatics never evolved into something like the internet or the interstate. Imagine every business combining their old pneumatic systems for very quick product delivery. Imagine apartment complexes implementing new pneumatic systems for mail delivery and eventually connecting straight to the post office or the fed ex office and then to other apartment buildings. Imagine buying something from Amazon and getting in from your tube ten minutes later. Of course this would require some serious access controls and "white-listing" but if economically feasible would revolutionize delivery like the internet revolutionized information.
