Amazing!! But it looks very expensive. Our minds will have to think very differently. Or will we even have to think.

Yeah, unless they make it fingerprint proof like the new stainless appliances, it'd drive me nuts. (shut up Mitch)
Think of all the germs on those things, with everybody touching it, sneezing on it, ACK!!!

I live alone - they are only my germs :) That said, yep, they need to find a better way to keep glass clean and fingerprint proof. Like Mitch, I would love to be around for this, tho. As a kid, my favorite cartoon was the Jetson's - and look how much of that we have now. Now, if I only had a bubble to fly in :)

Doing emails while standing at the bathroom mirror!! I'd never get anything done. We are being slaves to technology and less and less interactive with each other face to face. I find it all sad.

That would make the forum sad - and instead I find it so invigorating. My mom would have loved the internet age. When she retired she was so alone. Today there are neat retirement communities, and we have so many ways to interact. And things like our forum and others I belong to mean I don't completely hibernate. I find it all a blessing and am very thankful for it. Now, yes, there are days because of it that I don't get anything done - which is why my weeks with bad connections are probably good for me :)

Couldn't agree more Lenora. becoming too dependent on technology is not necessarily a good thing. What happens when it crashes? Would we know how to function? Somehow I don't see the public areas staying that pristine. Linda
