I love the potential of technology. I have long held that the industrial revolution was the beginning of "dirty" technology, that consumed from the earth and began to kill it, but it is a necesarry evil, and is (and i was correct about this 10 years ago) moving more towards harmony with nature. with hydrogen cell technology, the ability to use corn to make poklymers, and nanotechnology (not to mention advances in energy like state of the art windmills and the newer version of tidal energy), we are getting better technology without the same environmental impact.
If things continue to make the positive advances it has been, things will get better. Plus, bush is almost out of office. That is good for everyone.
