Year 1999 A D: What Philco-Ford thought the future would look like back in 1967

Startrek began in 1966.

Wink Martendale! The kitchen walls hold the secret to 2 minute meals - that's where they keep the Mexicans silly!

Amazing how much they already knew about what was coming and how badly they lied about who would get to enjoy it. Richer, healthier and with more leisure time. They already discovered the greatest transsexual singer in Puerto Rico. What will they do next - golf on Mars?

Seriously, as a kid in the 60's I went to the World's Fair and saw many "world of tomorrow" exhibits. We didn't get the flying cars or the "Safe, clean energy" everything would be run on.

I really liked these videos.

One day a lady from South Central Bell came to our school and demonstrated full duplex phones connected only by laser beams.

What a world we were promised.
