jj, have you noticed that Asymmetric Al has given at least 5 "super-duper-the sun is always shining-technology will take us to the land of milk and honey" speeches THIS YEAR ALONE.

federalreserve.gov

The total is 6 if you count the most recent rural American speech which does contain New Era gems such as these:

<<The standard of living in rural places also is being enhanced by technological changes that are expanding the menu of consumption possibilities.>>

<<Like all the previous episodes of technical advance, the revolution in information technology already has improved living conditions in numerous ways, and it will likely bring future benefits to rural communities that we now can only scarcely imagine. The benefits are perhaps most striking for those who are fully in tune with the new equipment for processing information. But the consumer who has never touched a computer or thought about information technology also is seeing beneficial effects, in the form of lower prices at the grocery store or other retail outlet than would otherwise prevail.>>

Maybe he figures if he says it enough times it will really come true...

"There's no place like home; there's no place like home..."
