So? And to whom? Not to the person who invented it.

I'm archiving your comment in my "incomprehensibly irrelevant" folder
Apparently if one is primitive enough even the mere quotation from Arthur C.
Clarke is indecipherable and unknowable let alone the advanced technology it
refers to.

Japanese is a difficult language to learn...not if you're born Japanese, duh!

Have a nice day or night whatever it happens to be where your cave is,

Do you believe that any technology is indistinguishable from magic to the
person who invented it? No, I suppose not.

So the statement becomes tautologous (is there such a word)... anything that
is sufficient to satisfy a condition, satisfies that condition. No shit
Sherlock.

I'm a little distressed at having to justify my sig to anyone, but... Arthur
C. Clarke is one of my favorite SF authors(along with Isaac Asimov). His
statement came as a result of his coming to realize that much of the technology
that we take for granted(PCs and WinXP, for example) would had been looked at
as witchcraft in earlier societies. He felt that a simple throwaway butane
lighter would have made one a God in early Egypt. I love the quote in light of
the many questions I get about PCs which make me think that many of my friends
and clients look upon their PC as essentially magic. Now, since I should be
able to use anything I want in my sig without having to defend it, please go
dissect someone else's.

Thanks,
John

Lots of great books are really sci-fi and lots of good ideas
come from them. Thor's hammer sounds a lot like a modern
handgun and looks about the same. In the original Star
Trek, remember the little plastic cards they were always
sticking into the console on the ship to logon to the
computer, Spock always had a handful, looked a lot like a CF
card.

Jim,
Have you seen the new issue of "Wired"(06/04 p. 30)? In it they are talking
about a new translucent plastic card, Info-MICA that will essentially be those
little plastic chips. It's the size of a postage stamp and data is stored
holographically. The first chips will be 1GB, but they expect to go to 10 soon.
Wonder if they watched Star Trek:TOS?

Cheers,
John

Have not seen that, but it sounds like an optical version of
bubble memory.

A reason for so much sci-fi is that politics gets in the way
of ideas. Some countries have strong sedition laws. The
reason Shakespeare wrote about Danish Kings was that the
King of England didn't care about what he said about crazy
Danish Kings. And Gulliver's Travels was really about
England, France and Spain.
