Please send me any of the nonsense talk you write to post on this page... Back to nonsense episode 1; episode 2 Nonsense episode 3: Sometimes, I wonder how the life of people will be when technology gets to the point when it can interfere into every side of people's life even him/herself... I especially wonder how it will affect people's mental life... Let me begin with the discussion about people's eating style first because eating is also a joy beside the needs for nutrition for people's body... When the technology blooms, food technology is included... Scientists will find the way to extract and produce food with exact amount of nutrition each person needs for the body... All those extracted nutrition will be compacted into food without any unwanted parts of the sources... Of course the modern food won't have the original shape and look such as chicken, pork, salad, fish, etc... Those sources will be extracted for nutrition and compact into the shape of pill or cream... The new food technology will help people to save time to cook, save space in the refrigerator, no more trash to throw away and stink your trash bin, save people from stomach upset or diarhea, and whole bunches of conveniences that you can think of with a little of your imagination... Not to mention that it will solve the conflict of married couple in decision who would have to cook the meals... Unfortunately, part of people's mental life is affected by this modern nutrition technology... Eating used to be a joy, an art that people love to enjoy... Well, to fix the problem, food companies in the future will produce their products in the shape and look of traditional meals instead of the shape of tablet or cream... They will bring to the market the breakfast mix with the smell and look of a pancake; the lunch mix with the smell and look of a hamburger, and the dinner mix with the smell and look of chicken soup, grilled steak.... People can invite others to have dinner out at the restaurants where they can get dinner mix with the smell and look of soup, steak, pork, etc... Of course people just has to drop those food with the shape of the tablets into the microwave oven, set it up with the manufacter's direction, in a few minutes those tablets will turn themselves into dish of steak, bowl of noodle soup... So, you can eat hamburger in the middle of Amazon river forest (I forgot to tell you that your future microwave oven will be portable, using solar energy that allows you to bring and use it everywhere), or you can eat a dish of Italian spaghetti right inside your cell in jail, or isn't it the best when you can eat any kind of meal look and taste perfectly even your wife/husband is not a very good housework? It's enough about talking about food and eating because imaginated stories have no end, even if I talk about it my entire life, so I stop here...Now, I'm talking about the education of the future, because if human race wants to stay on top, then we have to keep doing research and invention, even at the time human race reach the point of eating hamburger in the middle of Amazon river forest... Milk in the future, of course, can get a child to develop into the perfect height and weight in shorter time... But, we won't want to take away the joy of childhood from them, right? Well, then let them still have their 18 years of education... From 5 to 18 years old, they will learn about the history of human race, anything interesting that ever happened in human society in the most frankly point of view... From 18 to 23 years old, they will learn about the technologies and get updated the recent knowledge of current years... You will ask me how would we teach the children all those knowledge and facts about life and society fast like that... Oh, didn't I forget to tell you that they won't have to sit all day reading books, those knowledge and facts will be convert into computing data stored in the database; this database thru a special machine will contact and transfer into children's brains while they're sleeping... You will then ask me why sending them to school if all they have to do is sleeping at home and connect to learn at the same time...Oh, my poor friend, why could you take that away from our future generation the joy you used to have at school playing with friends, having the first love, having the best memories of life? Just like meal mixes with smell and look of BBQ chicken, bacon even they work just fine in the shape of cream or tablet; then just let children sleep and learn their knowledge together, is there any wrong with that picture? It will give you some spare time from taking care of your kids all day too, right? Of course, each of them has to sleep and learn in his/her own chair; and also get tested for what they learnt because not all of them can remember all the data has been transferred into their brains.... The one who fails the test still has to stay over the same grade one more year to sleep and learn until he/she pass... And because the studying time will be shorter than normal, they will have more time to work out, play sport to make their bodies stronger and healthy... All the rules, techiniques to play will be taught by transfering into their brains too; so don't be surprised when they can make the moves like Pele in soccer or Michael Jordan in basketball... The thing makes each of them famous will be their creations in the play to show up their own special talents... They will also have more time for picnic trips to live with the nature wild... That will help them to keep the open minds for creation without the limited border from the human knowledge; and keep the sensative souls to create music, poem, and story... Other usages of the data transfering machine into human brain are to read book, watch movie, listen to music in the sleep and still remember everything to enjoy when waking up... You will still have the choice to go the theater for movie, music, and reading book when awake if you prefer to keep your mind clear when sleep so that you would dream of taking your pretty girlfriend to the park... Of course you still could, my best friend, don't worry so much... So, there won't be hunger and illiteracy in the future... Sickness will also be eliminated mostly since most of everything in our bodies can be replaced... But, the law will only allow to cure under 60 years old person; person after that age will cure the pain of sickness but not the cause so that he/she would pass away the natural way... That will make sure we don't run our human race into old race and fill the living place full... Future transportation won't cause polution to the air because they will run on special rechargeable fuel batteries... Flying cars will be computerized to work with the virutal flying highways and bring you to the desired destination without crashing into other flying cars... We will needs only a few days to flight to other planets where liveable environments had been created by scientiests... You would then go visit your parents once a year in the Mars (of course your parents will still be human, not alien you see in "The X file" movie)... You would then marry your wife who lives in another solar system and having an affair with a girlfriend at the same time who lives in the Jupiter planet... Of course we will discover and be discovered by other alien from other planets and solar systems... We then would love and marry them if we'd want to... There won't be nation's citizen, just planet's citizen... There won't be Vietnamese or American but just Earthman... The new language for the whole universal will be the one created from the greatest of the beauty, the special, the easy to speak and easy to remember from all the current universal languages... There won't be any broken hearted person if we don't want to... Every memory could be erased easily from a person's mind... So, if someone would have a broke up as I do right now with his/her lover, that person will just have to connect the mind eraser machine to his/her brain and hit the button then he/she won't have to think about that change-of-heart ex-lover any more (of course the person just has to wear some kind of special helmet that connect to the machine, no need to cut open his/her head to connect the cable to, don't worry)... The person will have the choice to keep all the data about that ex-lover in a special antivirus space in his/her mind... Next time if he/she would ever come near that ex again, the brain will warn him/her to stay away for goodness shake... Then in case people who is more lucky than me and deep in heaven love; he/she will have to choice to record the nice memories from his/her mind into computer storage to look at later as some kinda life movie... Of course if someone would like to choice to keep the hurt of separation so that he/she would get some special hurtful feeling to write poem, music whatever is his/her choice... He/she will also can choose to not keep the ex's data in the antivirus zone either so that next time they run cross again in fate would be another brand new love... The future will be the world of choice, remember that... In that world, you could choose to take 3 food tablets for each meal time (or perhaps one total daily food tablet for the whole day, but remeber this would be bigger to swallow then), or choose to throw the special food tablet into the microwave oven to turn it into roasted turkey or something... You would like to take your pretty girlfriend to the theater to watch "Gone With the Wind" or stay home sleep and watch with the brain machine (you have to sleep the properly way without having dirty thoughts to be able to keep your mind clear for the movie data to be transferred into your brain, by the way, alright?) You would like to state in your electronic ID card that you choose to live or die naturally so that the doctors won't have to waste their time on you in case you have accident or sickness... You would like to drive your car on traditional road instead of flying... You would like to believe my crazy nonsense talk or not, my dearest friend... I could sit here hours just to write about those imaginations with all details from combing hair to living in another solar system... But time is up, my strenght is out too so I have to go to bed and wake up to go to work tonight.... Unfortunately I couldn't "transfer" my thoughts into the computer to write the story by itself... Unfortunately I have to make a living day by day just because I couldn't live in that dream future... If I could, lazy person like I am won't go to work 5 days a week but just half of those... I'll save money by taking only half of food tablet needed, the one in pill or cream type, not the one that can be turned into noodle soup (these, of course, are more expensive then the regular tablet of food)... But if you already let me dream, then let give me the honor to dream it big... I'll imagine that I will work in the position I love at the field I love... If so, then you can imagine that I'll be the hardest working person in the whole universal... Wednesday, October 09th, 2003 Dan Nam Phan |
