My Lost Future


Last week I blogged on the Great Lost Future and the corruption of the
ideals it was intended to convey. For those of you who want to see what that future was supposed to look like, try this website: Tales of Future Past.

Atomic-powered cities of skyscrapers that reach the clouds. Buildings so massive that the World Trade Centers fit inside. All connected with walkways and roads laced through the air. Airships everywhere, and flying cars. Robot servants. Glass domes. Jetpacks. Food as pills. Helmets worn like hats.

I get all misty-eyed just paging through it.
