[Imagination Club] Imagination Test

[Jeffrey Baumgartner]

Thanks for the new challenge, Maulik. I don't know why 
there have been so few suggestions. 

Anyway, here are a couple of mine...

The next great inventions may include...

1) the possibility to upload your entire consciousness to 
the Internet, thus allowing you to do away with your body 
and live in virtual paradise for ever.

2) Electronic telepathy: our brains will be wired directly 
to a computer connected to the Internet. When we want to 
communicate with someone, we'll just think an e-mail and it 
will be sent (the danger, of course, is when you are drunk 
and a pretty girl/handsome boy passes by...). You will also 
be able to Google information and have it downloaded 
directly into your brain.

3) Household robots. Not very creative, but I think we'll 
finally be seeing them soon.

4) Stem cell injections that regenerate lost or damaged 
bits of your body.

5) Temporary marriage contracts. Soon, we'll realise that 
marriage for life is on the way out. In a bid to rescue the 
tradition of marriage, temporary marriage contracts will 
become the norm.

6) The imagination club will surpass television, cinema and 
electronic games as the world's most popular form of 
entertainment!

All the best,
