More grey hair, aches and pains, a walker or wheelchair plus maybe some really neat new gadgets maybe.

I have often wondered about progress, especially in the gadget/technology area. I remember being really "wowed" by stuff like transistors, lasers, space travel, computers, holography, large flat screen displays, even digital photography. But now that these things are commonplace I see most progress today as just a novel application of that technology as opposed to something really new. In other words, I see a lot of evolutionary progress and less revolutionary invention.

I really want to be "wowed" again.

A singularity.

or

Everything at once - Quantum computing, it's possible although unlikely in the next two decades...

"My Heisenberg Compensator is in the Shop" as a friend of mine says....

Do you know where your cat is, and how it's doing?

Probably less grey hair (because less hair). Already got the aches and pains.

But in 20 years all that stuff (and more) will be built into my wheelchair.

If I'm around I might be too old to use any of it.
