You worried you'll click on the wrong thing and end up with a dirty mind?

superboyac:
Some of that stuff seemed pretty neat at the time.   Wonder where we'll be twenty years from now.  ;D

Most likely in a tightly regulated, moderately taxed, and heavily monitored info-place largely dominated by commercial interests, government-sponsored propaganda, religious ranting, and political agendas.

Oh yeah... and with better and faster graphics and media.

Does anyone really expect it to be any different?  I mean honestly now. ;D

Soooooooo depressing.  A rapidly diminishing middle class.  The standard of living in the city will decrease significantly.  Fewer "american dream" opportunities.  Much less freedom of speech from a social pressure standpoint.  The quality of education will be bloated and poor in general, and financially much more prohibitive than Americans are used to.  Just wait until the double-dip recession hits.  Wait until that bailout money starts diffusing into the system at large.  That's going to be scary.  Very depressing stuff.

1990?  Where did all those graphics come from?  My screen was text only for several more years.
