Michio Kaku and the Year 2100...


Dr. Kaku holds the Henry Semat Chair and professorship in theoretical physics at the City College of New York.

Obviously, his futurism is very (admittedly) optimistic.

However, the idea of a teenager being able to "blink" and get on the Internet during instruction is not an "optimistic" thought to me, especially to the science teacher a century hence needing his/her attention. It's bad enough NOW with surfing cell phones!

Oh, well! I don't plan to be around in the year 2100 to figure it out...
