Apparently the sky is crowded? I don't know this Thomas Frey, but has he been in the same sky as me?
His question about standing in front of a vending machine in 2050, what currency will you put into it? is pretty thought provoking.
I immediately thought about how ATMs are connected to both power and telephone lines. An ATM and a gas station pump can take my credit card or debit card info and convey it to the appropriate issuing party to validate that it is okay to pay out cash or gasoline.
It would seem that any vending machine could have the same capability. Then the kiosk could connect to the secure SCI page at e-gold.com and tell me "You have requested to pay $0.75 of gold to" some e-gold account. I put in my account number, SRK the password, and type in the Turing number (Alan would be *so* proud) and out pops a soda.
Or a pack of marijuana smokes? I mean, it is 2050, we might as well use our imaginations.
