Long ago when Christ was a kid in the 60's I thought about what the future would look like...

1. The Internal Combustion engine would be being phased out in favor of an alternative fuel vehicle by 2020 or so...as in not being produced anymore....chalk that up as being only partially true AT BEST.

2. That after a decimating economic calamity and resurrection that people would be working in a more cottage industry like capacity from their homes in a world with far more trees and plants.

3. That the world would be Green..trees and plants instead of steel and concrete. That there would be less pollution as the Global Industrial Economy Of Scale would be defunct. That in this world there would be far less people either due to war, famine or disease. That this would be man kinds rebirth of civilization. One where secular materialism is not the highest and best use of the planet we call home.

4. That bio luminescence would be used as a energy source.

5. That by 2004 or so that two small nations with nuclear weapons would have a go at each other with them...WRONG DIDN"T HAPPEN...but the potentiality is still there. India/Pakistan

6. In 1980 I had the epiphany that the US government in particular was going to keep spending money until they could nit beg, borrow, print, steal nor tax another dime...THAT HAS COME TRUE..

This is in effect what I see happening after the death of the Global Economy Of Scale and the attendant turmoil and chaos. That after reaching the nadir of a Dark Age that in several hundred years that what I have laid out would be the face of future civilization.
