When the very first cars were built, only the rich could afford it, but now a large part of the population (in developed countries) has one or more.

What do you think will be such an evolution in the future?

That line, "Cease to be a person," both applies to the sentiment of, "they won't live long," and, "when backed into a corner you see what someone can truly be."

Wars fought over drinkable water is not some far off fantasy but very well could (and likely will) become reality for many people.

The future for our little mud ball drifting through space suspended on a sun beam is looking pretty damn bleak.

My grandfather told me that the next world war would likely be fought over clean water decades ago and unfortunately it looks like that was another example of what a smart man he was.
