Everyone thought an automatic door was silly and would never happen. Now every store has automatic doors. They don't make the cool shoosh noise like in Star Trek, but they open automatically! And no one pays them any attention. |
When I used to read more as a littler kid I would always gravitate towards Jules Verne and HG Wells. I dug science fiction, but maybe only in that steam-punk way of cool mechanical stuff, not the warp drives and such.
