Ann’s not going to persuade me to go Romney, but the JBS was pointing out Gingrich’s associations with the Toffler’s well over a decade ago.
Dear Newt, your enthusiasm of years back for the technological revolution is forgiven. Funny how futurology got old so fast.
Progress, that comparative without a superlative has fooled more than you. Is it true that complaints about goods and services are handled in India?
I remember shortly before this time, giving out copies of “Future Shock” to a group of clients who were bank owners.
The point was to convince them that the world of information concerning investing and banking was going to change dramatically soon. We were trying to get them to be in the forefront in offering online investing and banking to their largest clients. They didn’t of course.
My point here is that Future Shock was a huge buzz at the time because it was predicting a large technology increase that would affect all of society. A lot of people could see this coming. Ann’s article here is kind of silly to me as I remember the time.
