Byron, appreciate the well thought out comments. Is there a Moore's law corollary for the brain? Because it seems that as the human knowledge doubles, the average human gets more and more ineffectual---as technology designed by the elite, causes the obsolesence of the senses among the masses. Witness the proliferation of un-parented, allergy-prone, obese schoolkids dependent on handheld calculators and automobiles. Any ideas on what the way we do business in 10 to 20 years will be? I predict by that time AOL's founders will have retired and the isp's will have merged and consolidated down to a few global telecom conglomerates, thanks to foreign language translation software and offshore banking havens.
