Reminds me of a question I have been wondering about: Can you formally specify what is the purpose of a suitcase?<p>In principle, you could dump all your clothes, toiletries, etc. in a pile on the airport checkin counter, and if system were organized enough, it could deliver all your stuff to hawaii and lay it all out on the hotel bed for you.<p>E.g., a robot would scan all your belongings at the airport, and dump them all into a big pipe... each item would get properly routed to your hotel room... kinda like how the internets work!<p>Is it just a question of organization? &quot;Everything in this suitcase belongs to this person and should move together to the same destination.&quot;
