In  LOST_WORLDS_OF_UNKNOWN_TOMORROWS  I remark:

   So, the future                                        
   has become a                                          
   commonplace.                                          
                                                         
   The idea that tomorrow                                                  
   may not be like today is                              
   no longer an underground                              
   doctrine.                                             


But attitudes toward                                        
change are complex                     
                                                                         
The myth of The Future that                                          
energized Science Fiction         
may be widespread, but that                 
doesn't mean we're all                      And the continually 
living in the future.                       shrinking sense of history, 
                                            where the horizon of 
   The expectation                          relevance gets closer and 
   that nothing is                          closer to the now...   
   certain leads                            that's really frightening.
   people to abandon 
   a long-term focus.                          
                                               LONG_AND_SHORT
             Live for today, because
             living for tomorrow is 
             an impossbility.
