From WSJ comments: And the "Coming Ice Age" becomes "Global Warming" becomes "Climate Change"!

And saving trees and not using paper becomes plastic (a waste byproduct of petroleum distillation) becomes evil and replace by paper!

And now, socialism is good because 30 years of public school indoctrination by Democrat controlled teacher unions - dominated by 80% females operating on "feelings" instead of common sense is now trying to undo all that the "male dominated" past of our country built.

It's all tied together, and ALL at the Democrats' feet.

But we do get to see entertainment news when we’re pumping our gas. There’s that...

AT&T ’s Picturephone service,

Well, we've had video conferencing and cell video for a while now, just later than the pundits initially predicted.

I’m sure we all look forward to the day when everything is free and nobody has to work and the government runs everything, and we all lead very happy and healthy lives and live to 200-400 years and perhaps more.

I.G.Y - Donald Fagen

Standing tough under stars and stripes
We can tell
This dream’s in sight
You’ve got to admit it
At this point in time that it’s clear
The future looks bright
On that train all graphite and glitter
Undersea by rail
Ninety minutes from New York to Paris
Well by seventy-six we’ll be a.o.k

What a beautiful world this will be
What a glorious time to be free

Get your ticket to that wheel in space
While there’s time
The fix is in
You’ll be a witness to that game of chance in the sky
You know we’ve got to win
Here at home we’ll play in the city
Powered by the sun
Perfect weather for a streamlined world
There’ll be spandex jackets one for everyone

What a beautiful world this will be
What a glorious time to be free

On that train all graphite and glitter
Undersea by rail
Ninety minutes from new york to paris
(more leisure for artists everywhere)
A just machine to make big decisions
Programmed by fellows with compassion and vision
We’ll be clean when their work is done
We’ll be eternally free yes and eternally young

What a beautiful world this will be
What a glorious time to be free

The future is determined by scientists and inventors working to solve problems and satisfy needs in the free market.

Not by government policy wonks decreeing what the future shall be from on high.

Nobody said it better than Plan 9's narrator Criswell:

Greetings, my friend. We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives. And remember my friend, future events such as these will affect you in the future.

Who can argue with that?

My wife asked me last night if anyone has ever said how much is really saved buying a Tesla (or Leaf). You always hear people crowing about how much they save not buying gas, so I just assume the comparative savings are massive, yet I have never seen it spelt out. Where I live kilowatt hours are cheap on a North American level. I think 12 Canadian cents where I live. Assuming a person is not a total cheapskate, and only charges their car at free stations but actually trickle charges at home, how much does it cost say to get 100 miles on flat road?

““And the “Coming Ice Age” becomes “Global Warming” becomes “Climate Change”!”

Becomes “Coming ice age” again. But this time, because of The Grand Solar Minimum for the next fifty years, is likely real. Millennials will be begging for global warming twenty years from now.
