>>It constantly amazes me that people fail to recognize that technological change is happening at an "exponential" rate<<

I've lost track of it, but I used to have a file of a report in which some university tech prognosticator made a very erudite, reasoned, and referenced pronouncement IN 1995-6 that the 'net had peaked, would never be anything more than a novelty for techie dilitantes, would never come close to establishing broad based use or support among John & Jane Q. Public, and would never be a medium by which business could be conducted much less a profit earned.

Guess he was pretty much wrong.
