I used to read lots of futuroloques. They were entertaining and the authors had a big imagination on how they could shape things in the years ahead.

But I was an outsider looking in. Late 80s, I start seeing flaws, big flaws, in their futurologists thing.

There was this future of barely half billion people in a planet of 5 or so billions.

Where were the shirtless in this future?

What? Future defined by Swedes and Californians?

Please!

Europe 1992, a project that would create a superboom?

I was the only one laughing!!

Well, eplay, I stopped reading them. I have my own view on how this thing is going to turn into and I can tell you it is not like Alvin Toffler -a great futurologue, mind you- said it will be.
