I don't understand what you're trying to get at by saying that people can't conceive how they work. Obviously a lot of people can, otherwise we wouldn't have the amount of phones, Internet service providers, or screen manufacturers.

You're probably right that most people will be spending most of their time inside playing what would look like a computer game, but they'll probably actually be doing some real work. IMO I can see a couple of trends intersecting in a good way: gaming companies are getting better and better at making their games addictive (openly), and the job market will continue to shrink. A research company that breaks down the complex research it's doing into small, individual steps that can be represented by online puzzles would have a ready source of cheap labor. Check out the Foldit Project, and you'll see what I mean. Today, we play Bejeweled' surreptitiously at out jobs. In a few decades, 'Bejeweled' could BE our kid's jobs. The data their solutions represent collectively could be groundbreaking medical or technical discoveries. People who are top scorers at these unassuming games could wind up being great medical researchers, without real training or any special intellect. There's a market there... sigh.

Take 56 million that died in the last war most of whom are the young healthy male and female breeding stock and remove them = another 1.3 billion today ,give or take. Good or not it is how we keep our numbers down , we look at every thing in good and bad , black and white . Nature just is not like that and we are part of nature , even if you think god made us , we still breath the air and eat the food of this world and that make's us one and part of if it. We are growing and learning to mimic what nature is showing us and building on it, take the robot it's look's like it's made from old car part's so that is how it will move . If a replacement hip joint was made to the same shape as the organic one it will work the same way , the answers are in front of us we just have to look ! Oh and when did this become a dating site for SI's I love the fact that so few people can play concect the dot’s , and yes war is a must a built in self control .

Yes, let's have our children spend hours on end playing video games. That's the future. It's a r*tarded future where people spend more time indoors virtually doing what they could actually be doing outdoors. That's it, I will become a hermit if that's our future.

Now I'm not saying that killing people is necessary (although it is in a way) but you should look at the history of the world. Let's not go too far. WWII created jobs for America, and it also helped us get rid of the Deppression of the 1930s. Not only that, the UN was formed along with the Global Bank. This war unified most of the world together, with diplomatic alliences along with an interchangeable currency. War is sometimes necessry. Sometimes, just sometime, war is a good thing. It's up to the future generations to decide wether what we did was right or wrong. In the meantime, we should just enjoy the life we have before we lose it. Uhh… war is necessary.

We will never have that. I mean, it would be easier AND cheaper if they placed a helicopter on the driveways of every American home. Now that should be the aim of the future. People can then fly to work. How cool would that be? What’s up with people and flying cars? We will never have that.

Let's not be such weak, pathetic ****** and enjoy something for once, eh? Just once can I read someones opinion and expect someone to say something interesting?

Time – 0730 Am

You wake up by the alarm clock, a piece of technology that has been around for over 150 years.
You stand and go to the shower, which automatically switches on as soon as you step inside, the water temp is the same from your previous shower, the shower and all running water facilities are controlled via a home mainframe, located in a hidden wall panel in your house somewhere.

Instead of exiting the shower and drying your self with a towel, the water stops after a set amount of time, which you programmed it to do weeks or years before this individual day, you stay in the shower and a worm blanket of air is blown on to your naked wet body from all sides via tiny pin holes.
Your dry in seconds, you now exit the shower and stand at the sink, you pick up your tooth brush and brush your teeth, using the water from the fountain spray next to your basin to rinse your mouth out.

You get dressed manually in your bedroom and walk down stairs, as you do you say “home morning activation”, quietly if you wish and all your blinds, curtains in every room of your house opens up, the computer will be in morning mode.

Your 80” colour HD 3D Television in the lounge, mounted within the wall above your fake fire place switches on to the channel you programmed weeks or years before, for it to whow during mornings.
Plus any over night phone messages, emails and faxes will automatically come up on several monitors throughout your house, next to light switches perhaps or else where.

As you enter the kitchen, if the morning light is not yet light enough, the lights overhead will come on, but only to a dim but still see able brightness, allowing you to see your way around the room.

You then click on the coffee machine or the all-in-one tea maker (which unfortunately is still manual operated), then go to the lounge where a computer animated voice will ask you “do you wish to watch television or sort out your email and other messages”, lets say you say TV, you sit on the chair or sofa and watch it.

You have to get your own mug and poor out your own coffee or tea then go to the lounge or dinning room which also has a television.
After drinking you see that its nearly time for work and grab your coat etc and exit your house, no keys required, just wall out of your house, closing or leaving your front door open, it does not matter.

There’s not been an car accident on the roads for over 50 years since automated cars came in to existence, when before they came about, over 4,000 people lost their lives in car accidents each year.

Your fully automated car will get you to your work, park it self in an free space or its own space and open the door.
