When in the Future They Look Back on Us...

I think when people look back at our time, they will be annoyed at one thing more than any other. It is this - that we do know more about ourselves now than people did in the past, but that very little of this knowledge has been put into effect... People to come will marvel at it, as we marvel at the blindness and inflexibility of our ancestors.
