Slightly off piste- but much as I enjoyed “Tomorrows World” in me youth, I used to think yeah, well, this is the stuff “they”
want us to see...the real, latest tech isn’t gonna appear on TV etc anytime soon...
But yes, agree, in a World now of news overload, where so much is noise, it’s difficult not to double down on the cynical side of the street... and with all the pitfalls
that stance may present... but it does amaze me, almost everyday, whilst listening to phone ins etc and conversations one overhears or encounters, that with Humanity now having so much connectivity, and easy access to pretty much all knowledge ( ‘ cept Area 51 of course

) - how ignorant so many people seem about matters, and in many cases actually relish that ignorance- and this from a broad spectrum of what would be considered well educated, to the lesser favoured ones...
And I’m not claiming any special status or superiority, just an observation, from well, observations!
