Predictions on things that you think will be invented by someone with more technical knowledge than you, or more impetus than you, or perhaps that one day you will invent. This is the place for speculation about the future.

Futurism of the Past

Postby Colonel Sun » Fri Jul 22, 2011 6:55 pm

As this idea was inspired by a post and comment from Sennacherib . . . will start with

Expo 67 - Montreal

Never criticize anyone until you've walked several kilometres in their shoes.
Because

1. You're now several kilometres away; and

2. You've got their shoes.

The canary didn't die because this mine is dangerous, it died because it's lazy and wasn't raised with a proper work ethic.

10 years ago the USA had Steve Jobs, Bob Hope, and Johnny Cash. Now we have no Jobs, no Hope, and no Cash.
