When I was a kid in school, they told us that by now, we'd all be flying our own little helicopters to work or when we went shopping. They said most of the diseases and illness that plague human kind would be cured by now... and that we'd spend weekends on the moon, and two week vacations on Mars. There would be no more war.
They said we'd have two-way wrist TVs to communicate (well, we're almost there) and homes would all be heated with solar panels on the roof... cars and trucks would be pollution free... cars would drive themselves down the highway. Why did we believe them, the dirty rats. Where's the pleasant, clean, peaceful future we were promised?
