My interpretation of what Mike has accomplished at such a young age and his visions of the future is technology based, which is based on my own experiences.

My career began in the late 1950's in electronics technology. Being deeply involved in it, primarily as an instructor, these past 40+ years, I feel a little overwhelmed concerning all the change/advancements that have occurred.

So, yes, I am impressed with his (Mike) vision. It's not his fault he sees things from a U.S. perspective.

I've traveled to many countries and, to some degree, I can emphathize with what you're saying also. The majority of the world will not benefit from all this gee whiz stuff anytime soon.
