Frankly, I find most of the things Calvin was waiting for rather unnecessary. As for comparing the world when I was born (mid-60s) and now, I can see our lifestyle has changed a lot, and all these changes can be summarized in one world: computers and the internet.

Okay, that's two words. But they are linked, aren't they.

Think about how we listen to music, watch movies and other shows (including reruns of our favorite TV programs), do research, and get information, from train schedules and fares to street directions. That kind of revolution is, to me, much greater, more important than jetpacks.

I know! Computing and the Internet.

The wifi went down the other week, and in the summer we had a couple of power cuts, and I felt lost without access to the Internet.
