[QUOTE="dancho, post: 16114, member: 245"] [b]Another Stepping Stone[/b] It's all over but the cryin', Cary. That's progress. You are never going to put the genie back in the bottle. Technology has reached a point where we can spy on each other with ease. But all is not lost. This does not automatically mean that the world is coming to an end. It is just one part of a HUGE change in the nature of our world, that some folks have called "The Singularity." This will be the greatest "event" in human history, and it's bearing down on us now, and will occur in about twenty to fifty years. The "news media" can't report on it because it's a force so vast and powerful that it can't be defined. It's technological change. Raised to the the power of "almost literally of infinity." My favorite movie of all time is "Forbidden Planet." In that film (the film that the ideas for the original Star Trek were 'borrowed' from) the crew of the starship find a planet where a magnificent civilization once stood-- the civilization of The Krell. When they arrive at the planet, all that remains of that civilization is a single giant machine that fills the interior of the planet. The purpose of the machine? To enable any Krell to create anything that they desire using the power of their minds alone. "Creation free of instrumentalities." We are closer to that than anyone imagines. Now, dammit, I'm going to have to go put that movie in the VCR. :D [/QUOTE]
