A friend has said the future of the future is the
present. If you really are curious about the future,
just study the present. Because what we ordinarily
see in any present is really what appears in the
rearview mirror. What we ordinarily think of as
present is really the past. Modern suburbia lives in
Bonanza land. It looks back nostalgically and
sentimentally to the frontier as a kind of safe, and
at the same time, admirable and desirable world.
