I read about some future plans about an elevator to the moon once.

That, in my opinion, is t3h nonsense! XD

Parachutes in cars are cool too.

An ejector seat in a helicopter

2- Are there any helicopters with ejection seats?

Yes. The Russian Zvezda K-37 seat system was specifically developed for use in the Kaman Ka-50 Black Shark, and is also used in the Ka-52 Alligator attack helicopter. The seat is more of a tractor rocket system than a full ejection seat, but it does provide for escape from the helicopter. The system first fires explosive bolts to jettison the rotor blades then jettisons the canopies and finally tractors the crewmen out. Their parachutes automatically deploy seconds later. In the United States, some work was done on a similar concept using an AH-1 Cobra helicopter, and a crew module system was tested on an H-21. Neither was followed up on.

Linky.

lol, that would not work on so many levels, mainly the physics that would wrap the elevator around the earth due to the earth's spin and moons orbital period being nothing alike

I can't think of any contradictory inventions right now

Except for the multimillion dollar investment of a pen that works in space, when a pencil is perfectly useable...

[Madame Adequate]

A Space Elevator is not an entirely unfeasable concept. However, if it goes wrong it's a pretty goddamn big deal.

This is the truest one I've seen.

Any fruit you see in the produce section that has an 'organic' label on it. You know, the kind that costs twice as much.
