Just got back from CES.

What a boring thing this is.

Hundreds of big screen TV’s, smart phones and headphones/speakers (rinse and repeat).

There is nothing new under the sun.

I would rather go to a car show.

It was terribly dangerous to let your thoughts wander when you were in any public place or within range of a telescreen. The smallest thing could give you away. A nervous tic, an unconscious look of anxiety, a habit of muttering to yourself – anything that carried with it the suggestion of abnormality, of having something to hide. In any case, to wear an improper expression on your face (to look incredulous when a victory was announced, for example) was itself a punishable offense.
