Popular Mechanics and Popular Science were staples of my life. Do you remember "Back to the Future"? or "Blade Runner"? There are flying cars right now but I don't think the technology is ready for Prime Time yet! Wanna bet on a century from now? Right, I'll be dead by then. Never mind...

You never know. Then again as a kid I thought we'd have flying cars by now

Fine. Believe what you will. You and I do not agree. But, I continue to
try and live in stasis on this List.

I turned on to Science Fiction in 1973 from E.E. Doc Smith to Robert

next Millenium is debatable. Sorry!

Back off a bit with your prognostication. I do not disagree. Sadly, I
have on progeny.
Still I agree with your Science Fiction postulation.

You think this is bad? Your great grandchildren will grow up in a

will happen and it's only a matter of time...

Thane,
I am so happy that you now sorta get my position on the World Wide
Waste.
On a daily basis I am shocked by the level of 'personal' or
'private' data I
am asked for just to transact what I consider mundane commerce. I am
forming an opinion that 'convenience' in the internet space
requires me to
be darn near naked.  I have read again the current Winterlight/Soren
recovery business and I am close to flatline. I have re-done my old
'tin-hat'
with fresh aluminum-foil.

Should you be doing private business stuff with suppliers/contacts,
I'd be
very concerned. Why would you share a private business plan, only
to find
another competitor get it and put you out of business?
Just dumb if you ask me.
JHMO. But, I am such a noob in this new world of 'Internet is King!'
Best,
Duncan

Yeah, that's true.  Man, it's pretty useless trying to be private
on the Internet.  I'm going to give it a try, though.
