Are we going to be nostalgic for the future next?

I am nostalgic for the future. Our current future is nothing like what the future used to be. Even Star Wars isn't the future but "long ago." Where are our flying cars? The robots with cute personalities? Space Hotels with a tourist section? I want my future back!

That dream quickly died when it became apparent that 98% of the people can't even handle 2 dimensional driving with much competence (many even have trouble with just one - see any left lane around the country), so adding another dimension would result in one big blood bath
