Science was the key to the future.

Well, 30 years on and the world's scientists and researcher have
become (maybe always were) slaves of the corporations and government.
Now, viruses to kill the bacteria... That WAS something beyond my imagination.


That's what I mean...
I guess, too, I never realized just how quickly the double edged sword
of scientific knowledge would quickly turn a positive thing into
something negative, and I certainly never saw my own lifestyle reverting
back to the old ways...if you had asked me what my life now would be
like back then, I probably would have described something akin to a
Jetsonian existence instead of a Flintstonian existence...lol... it's a

SISU! (Finnish--There is no single word in English that encompasses
all that sisu means, but it combines the following ideas: guts, pep,
determination, stubbornness, perseverance, hardiness, stamina, go, do,
nerve, spunk, pluck, and grit. It's like "Just Do It!" & "Go for It!")
GO NAVY!
