So much of Randall's commentary is very very interesting. He is obviously a
scholar and a visionary. I only ask, why is he so bitter? There is nothing
we can do to bring forth his era of computing bliss.

I simply like using Revolution. Keyword "using". Randall wants improvements
in leaps so grand that only aliens or secret government technologies may
conceive of. Someone recently told me that the our technology today had
exceeded that of science-fiction's very own "Star Trek". I will agree that
the cell phone and iPad look like devices that were conceived of on sci-fi
television, yet we still burn fossil-fuels to go to the supermarket.
