    They expect big breakthroughs in battery technology to power all of our electronic stuff. Greener and meaner!

      Yuk, yuk, yuk..shall I tell you about the time we had to reload all the Compaqs because the new guys wouldn't read the manual and they didn't know Compaqs of old needed a partition to be loaded first that contained the boot info? And the time they...oh, never mind...now give me an ageist joke about the oldsters who don't know technology when they probably made the equipment the youngsters board swap with. This old girl with her own soldersucker will look at your joke as the joke it was meant to be. Tee hee...I can storm chase without a GPS too. Must be a freak of a woman. Hi Rik!

    A way of meeting the needs of humanity without upsetting the balance of nature. As they say, necessity is the mother of invention.

    I hope it's anything that will replace our dependence on fossil fuels and which we have an abundance of, like using garbage as fuel.

    I would like to see some new cleaner fuels that would get us out of the middle east. My son's been working with his professors on a nano tech research project and he says it's real cool and very important, for what? I don't know. I tease him and say they just want to know where you are!

      That sounds great! Hopefully your son will be able to play it off into a job where he can work for the next Microsoft.

    Computers that blogs? And post in forums? tongue

    OK, I think battery powered cars has a decent chance to be the next big thing. Forget petrol, renewables to generate electricity and charge the cars.
