I recently read Asimov's Foundation... supposedly takes 10,000 years in the future where humans have colonized the entire galaxy, and yet everyone is still smoking cigars and using microfilms and the sheer lack of females. Is this 10,000 years into the future or 1950s America?
Well, history tends to repeat itself. It's just 1950s America come round again.
