Do you realize that they promised us the same things in the 1950's and 60's.
And we were all supposed to get them flyin' cars in our driveways by the
year 2000
And all we got is teeny-tiny clown cars, that we used to laugh at in the
1960's.

Not forgetting that Lost in Space sent the Robinsons to Alpha
Centauri,.....in the distant future, of 1997.

Of course when Lost in Space, Star Trek, and Apollo were all filmed in
similar movie studios,....that's what you get.



In the 50', there was in year 2000 spaceships transporting thousands of
passengers with electron tubes, Martian cities, flying cars,
extraterrestrials, computers up to 1 MB, weighing 3 tons, flickering,
noisy but there were no smartphones neither internet
