Yawning Man Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Hey guysBob Dylan put it best when he said the time are changing! From year to year things can change dramatically, laws passes or overturned, wars started and finished. What about a period of ten years. How will things be different? What's happening at the moment that can have an effect on the future?Here's some things that happened in 99.- The Euro was established- The Chinese government announced restrictions on the Internet.- The largest Cocaine bust in American history. A ship carrying 4.3 Tons on a ship headed for Houston Texas is intercepted. - Hugo Chavez becomes the Venezualen President. - The Kosovo war is raging- The Colombine shooting occur.- Napster debuts. One of the first file sharing programs, entertainment industry shits itself.- George W. Bush annouces he will run for President.- China launches it's first spacecraft.- World population reaches 6 BillionIt's a bit hard to predict what will happen, as there are so much to take into account. But what are some big things that will affect humanity and the earth.Global warming? Also i saw that Obama lifted the ban on Stem cell research. A cure for cancer maybe?cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mycot Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 (edited) It's fine to dream (and yes things occur first in the imagination) but whatever is hoped for, to be realized has to be grounded in reality. Edited April 6, 2009 by Mycot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G*P Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 (edited) But, reality Is grounded ins-i-i-i-de the 'imagination', isn't it? Edited April 6, 2009 by G*P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FancyPants Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I reckon it'll probably be pretty much the same as now but without the financial crisis. Same old worries; world overpopulation, pollution, infrastructure problems, people wanting to live forever, money wasted on useless shit... etc etc. Unless you're going through a huge revolution like the sixties or the industrial revolution, people in general don't really change much in ten years. I remember '99 as if it were only a few months ago. Unfortunately I'm also very much hoping for what Foton said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
