[edit] General Events
The dividing line between Before and After.
In the mid-to-late 20th Century it was widely (and somewhat optimistically) believed that by 2001 we would all be being served vitamin-enriched breakfast-flavour capsules by shiny and obedient housekeeping robots and have flying air-powerered rocket cars parked in the driveway. Our children would learn through a kind of 'knowledge osmosis', by plugging themselves into an automated teacher-bot in a virtual holographic environment. We would be able to breathe underwater simply by popping an 'air-pill' before diving into the ocean and swimming to previously unchartered depths.
Unfortunately, experience has taught us that in 2001 we were really all eating the same old shit for breakfast, being served by the same miserable cow down the greasy caff who couldn't actually afford to keep her fuel-shafting car on the road anyway. The roads themselves having trouble dealing with the numbers of cars on them and are collapsing into old, disused mineshafts. We were inventing syndromes called things like ADHD to excuse the fact that all our children were turning into stupid, horrible and annoying little bastards with no redeeming qualities to speak of.
