Yes, we'll all be dead. But, those roundabouts still live on.

Fifty years from now. They will read about us and say, can you believe they did not know bacon is good for you, they were so self concerned that they thought people caused global warming, they ran cars on oil not solar cells, they did not have a replicator, they thought a 3d printer was high tech.

Actually, they will have flying cars, and this roundabout will be several hundred feet in the air, think about it!

Each house will have a cistern. Golf may disappear due to financial burden and there will still be a debate gas vs electric transportation. I hope people will be smarter 50 years from now or it may be like the movie “ Idiocracy”

I wonder if the music played at the squares will be different too. I like the oldies but as a 57 year old I would love to hear some 90s tunes too which I think had phenomenal music. Maybe that too will come...

I could get into some Green Day, Nirvana and Pearl Jam! Add some Counting Crows, DMB and Hootie and we're rockin'!
