I do believe we're heading in the direction discussed in the previous entry, but we're still stuck in pre-Internet and pre-computer thinking, as most of us (Baby Boomers and myself in Generation X) grew up in a world devoid of these two technologies. It seems highly likely that today's Generation Y (Net Generation), that has been with computers and the Internet since a very young age, will be the generation to finally solve the convergence of old systems while at the same time making the next giant leap forward...perhaps to something or a means we have not considered or cannot even fathom beyond the confines of science fiction. It is, in part, simply a matter of paradigm.
