Please look at “Huddling Place” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huddling_Place), from Clifford D. Simak, published in 1944, later inserted in his book “City”. There you’ll find the following, when it’s being described the agoraphobia that a lot of men are suffering: “For what need was there to go anywhere? It all was here. By simply twirling a dial one could talk face to face with anyone one wished, could go, by sense, if not in body, anywhere one wished. Could attend the theatre or hear a concert or browse in a library half-way around the world. Could transact any business one might need to transact without rising from one’s chair.”

Yes! I was going to mention this as well. I read it the first time when PCs came out but there was no internet, and I thought he was brilliant for predicting having computers in the home as information devices. Then the internet happened, and I was in complete awe that this guy basically got it right 50 years before it happened. Besides that, the story is fun!

You have made the bridge between living in the moment and preparing for the future a bit more concrete. The foundation for the future is built today and that foundation should be infused quality and thoughtfulness. Thanks!
