Do you think you'll still be posting at DU in 10 years?
Assuming that you and DU are still around.

1. Well, I've been here for 4 so far and work in a cube with internet access.
I don't see that changing any time soon, so...
maybe.

2. In 10 years? I don't know.......
That's a lot of years...

If I'm still alive (and I expect to be), I sure will be!

They'll have to pry my keyboard from my cold, dead hands!

3. I'd love to think that in 10 years, DU wouldn't be necessary.
Everything would be right with the world, and partisan boards like DU would no longer see the need to exist.

:rofl:

Okay, now after that bit of fantasy, I think in 10 years, I'll have either become too fed up with politics in general, or the internet will have crashed.
If I'm still posting on DU in 10 years, it'll be from my iMplant™, the Apple computer that's installed in your brain.

5. Ten years from now we'll be at the end of eight years of a Democratic presidency
The pendulum might start swinging back toward fascism.

6. In 10 years I'll be an old fool...as opposed to the young fool
I happen to be now. Somehow, I can't imagine checking into DU everyday just to make sure the earth is still spinning!

20. Naw
It seems to me that about 95% of the people here are downers. A lot of negativity here, and I doubt I will be here too much longer.

28. No, it's reality

I'm nearing eighty. Reasonably good health, but
at this age one never knows what is around the corner.
Didn't mean to be negative.

32. God willing, if I'm still alive
and if DU is still here. Maybe in 10 years there will be some wild and crazy replacements for message boards. Remember Usenet?
