"Is Mr. Smith there?" the caller asked. "I'm very sorry, but Mr. Smith passed away last night," the receptionist answered.

COMPUTERS & ELECTRONICS: As depicted in movies, Word processors never display a cursor. You never have to use the space-bar when typing long sentences. All monitors display inch-high letters. High-tech computers, such as those used by NASA, the CIA, or some such governmental institution, will have easy to understand graphical interfaces. Those that don't, have incredibly powerful text-bases command shells that can correctly understand and execute commands typed in plain English. Corollary: you can gain access to any information you want by simply typing "ACCESS ALL OF THE SECRET FILES" on any keyboard. Likewise, you can infect a computer with a destructive virus by simply typing "UPLOAD VIRUS" (see "Fortress"). All computers are connected. You can access the information on the villain's desktop computer, even if it's turned off. Powerful computers beep whenever you press a key or whenever the screen changes. Some computers also slow down the output on the more...

A young man was walking through the park when he noticed an old man sitting on a bench, sobbing. He approached the old man and asked what was wrong.
"I'm 89 years old and I'm in love with a 25 year old woman," the old man sobbed.
"That doesn't sound like something to be crying about," the young man replied.
"You just couldn't understand," the old man said between the sobs and the sniffles. "Each morning before she heads out to work, we make passionate love. She comes home at lunchtime, we make love again and then she fixes me my favorite meal. When she gets a break in the afternoon, she rushes home and we have the best sex an old man could ever want. Then, at dinner time and all through the night, we make love."
"I still don't understand," said the young man. "It sounds like the perfect relationship to me. Why are you crying?"
Still sobbing, the old man replied through his tears, "I can't remember more...

Back in the good old days - the "Golden Era" of computers, it was easy to separate the men from boys
(sometimes called "Real Men" and "Quiche Eaters" in the literature). During this period, the Real Men were
the ones that understood the computer programming, and the Quiche Eaters were the ones that didn't. A
real computer programmer said things like "DO 10 I=1, 10" and "ABEND" (they actually talked in capital
letters, you understand), and the rest of world said things like "computers are too complicated for me" and
"I can't relate to computers - they are so impersonal". (A previous work [1] points out that Real Men don't
relate to anything, and aren't afraid of being impersonal.)
But, as usual, times change. We are faced today with a world more...
