Man in 100 years..
I was just watching TV and that movie the Assassination of Jessie James was on. I'd seen the movie before but the date he died got me thinking. He was killed in 1882 that was only 90 years before I was born and it was such a diffrent time then.
When he was alive the cross country trains was a rather new thing. The major form of transportation was still the horse an buggy. So now it's been 126 years since he was killed. In that amount of time the automobile was invented, man harnessed the atom, we left this planet and landed on the moon. Technology has boomed which has changed the lives of almost everyone on this planet.
For thousands of years man worked with basic hand tools and in roughly 100 years we have advanced faster than we advanced in the previous 1000 combined. You think we can continue to do so, or will we eventually get stuck at some point and not be able to keep advancing at such a rapid pace?
