1. Thanks

These are interesting. Too bad I don't have time to read all of them. I liked one about how the increased use of SSRIs could cause more detachment and less sex drive over a large set of population, and very much affect society and its values..........a dangerous idea because the pharmaceutical companies are big and powerful. I forgot to bookmark it though so I guess you would have to hunt for it!! It is a pleasure, though, skimming some of these.

2. The Edge

The best thing about the Edge are their video interviews, since these guesstimate pieces they post every year are so often so way off base. For significant and really persuasive futurism, look at Ray Kurzweil.
