The Future's Bright

[andrewducker]

It occurred to me, watching a colleague leave this evening, that the visions of the future popularised during the 1950s are, in fact, entirely accurate.

When the artists were granted their vision of The Distant Future and saw its denizens clad in reflective clothing, adorned with flashing chunks of technology, strange helmets strapped firmly to their heads, what they simply failed to realise was that what they were looking at was not the average inhabitant of the far flung 21st century, but a cyclist.

So- just saying-
