"When I was a kid, I'd wake up extraordinarily early every morning and turn on the television, scanning for episodes of "The Jetsons." For some reason, I loved the notion of a future where there would be flying cars, supercomputers, and most of all, robot maids to take care of the chores. The generation that preceded me tuned into "Star Trek" for the same reasons -- they were eager to see a future that featured incredible technology and timesaving conveniences.
For the first time in American history, today's generation is looking at a future that resembles the Flintstones more than the Jetsons."
