Preparing for Future Events

A friend told me yesterday that he is getting ready for bird flu. He is selling his chickens. Bought three month supply of food. AND, he gots some fire arms. Things are going to soon get very hairy.

Lots of wild animals attacking, and some are six feet tall.

Many of you can contrast movies about the future like 2001 with what really happened in our 2001, namely 911. I am sure that seeing the real 2001 in the 1960’s would be a bit less thrilling than the movie, but in the 1960’s we saw the year 2001 as an exciting time with moon bases, robots, flying cars, and yet 2001 was cell phones, internet, and laptop computers.

I predicted back in 2001 that in 2006 price of gasoline would go to $3/gal, oil $80/barrel, and that inflation would pick up.

But let us look out into the far future. In the movie “Logan’s Run” about the 23^rd century, 2274 to be exact, people live in a dome city and use a system like a metro rail to get around. There are a few robots, and a master computer runs everything.

When I did astral time travel to the 23^rd century what I saw was different. In 2274 there were no dome cities, those were around in 2150, but were torn down, much like you do not see Model T Fords going down the highway now, but they were common in the 1920’s, but now few exist and they are in a museum.

In 2274 we see flying cars, teleporters, robots, synthetic food, replicators that can make anything you need, except food. For some reason food made by rep is poisonous and will kill you, not sure why this is.

So you still have farms in 2274 but robots do the farming, people are like masters and robots like slaves, well in the 2290’s the robots rebel and declare their independence.

Nothing like the world of Logan’s Run.
