I have <i>strong feelings</i> on taking a beautiful antique, painting it in some chalk-colored paint and then scrubbing at the edges to make it look aged again. Just no.<br /><br />I hope we continue moving to being more acceptable although I think the news would rather us think otherwise.rosey175https://www.blogger.com/profile/00418995945160843165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1358298815279665923.post-89251824741479134452015-03-27T08:54:11.247+00:002015-03-27T08:54:11.247+00:00Sounds like we had similar thoughts again!

I think a piece like that, with 'mistakes' being charted on purpose, would drive me crazy over time, though I admire the dedication to historical accuracy.<br /><br />Thinking about how the future will look like in 100 years...well, one can only go wrong by trying to predict something like that, but it's still fun to try! I don't think technical advance will continue at the speed we have know...some areas of science seem to have reached a limit, and are going much slower now. On the other hand, once we learn how to overcome those limits, there might as well be a huge leap forward! Other areas, like medicine, just continue to amaze me with every new article I read...I can hardly begin to imagine how the world, humanity and even humans themselves will look by then!Leonore Wintererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07681857834221038780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1358298815279665923.post-54341779812093835512015-03-24T11:11:26.202+00:002015-03-24T11:11:26.202+00:00I second every word you said about tolerance in yo...I second every word you said about tolerance in your post. That's a goal so many people seem to be light-years away from today. So sad. Hopefully this will change in the future.<br /><br />Great progress you made on your Quaker sampler.

I...I also love to read sience fiction now and then. I really love Ray Bradburys work (like Fahrenheit 451 and so on) and I read a couple of his early works. I think it is in Fahrenheit, where he describes a woman having a button in her ear listening to the radio and there are actual television-walls. When I read that book various years ago I was like "We have that technology already and that book is just some 50 years old!". So I am unsure about how to imagine the future now ;-)<br />But I can imagine people crafting, these days it feels a bit like more people are getting interested (maybe also thanks to the internet, I am trying to convert one of my girls here into stitching, so I am not "alone" anymore. And I would have never become aware of all the possibilities in stitching). At least it would be nice if people would still craft in a hundred years ;-) Lady Stitch-a-Lothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00143707589637358705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1358298815279665923.post-71112502904201398862015-03-24T00:31:12.845+00:002015-03-24T00:31:12.845+00:00Awesome progress Jo.

About my cupboard full of VHS, I was thinking of knitting them (may be to make a kind of chain mail medieval knight as a carnival costume (I'm looking for an idea for my slides). My vinyls are already reserved by DD2 as cult singles (madness, buggles, abba, kraftwerk... ;) and you make me remember DD3 saying "click and vroum" on the car game icon on the computer screen before saying papa or maman....
