CS855 Technology Inspiration

The younger generations like your son are exposed to technology from their inception. The senior generations were the pioneers of technology to entertain and solve their problems using the first generation of electronic gadgets e.g., teletypes, typewriters, calculators, etc. leading to further technological advances. The call to technological advances occurred when the USSR successfully launched Sputnik satellite in the late 1950’s. The mission was expanded by JFK’s Inaugural address. So we are the pioneers of the new technologies to influence and direct the younger generations.

Good Point, but if we are the first generation to really be exposed to new technology with the advent of Sputnik and the changes it made to the societal norm. In light of the technology changes we experienced and influenced, what does the future hold. It will be different, but alas we should remember that we have an engineer and design responsibly. See my blog for the Billy Graham Ted article. He talked about this very thing.
