Welcome to the year 2060 as you'll notice the world has changed quite dramatically in the past 50 years, several things are bigger, world's tallest skyscraper 1/2 mile in high but most things are smaller. Nano-tech medicines cure all forms of cancer, some things are faster hyper-sonic flight from New York to Tokyo takes two hours, while other things last longer average human life span 125 years. Of course these are just predictions, will they ever be reality? What technologies today will revolutionize tomorrow's personal transportation, by onyx, warfare, home entertainment and space exploration and why bother even trying to predict what's coming. Forecasting the future is very important in a couple of levels, if you can't anticipate what's going to happen you're going to be stuck reacting to what's happening. A good place to start on your road trip into the future is on the road.
