Have you read “how to be idle”. Or indeed “brave new world”? I’m consistently impressed how all dystopias turn out to be forecasts.

no, apparently that and “Nice Cup of Tea and a Sit Down” are two books available from amazon.co.uk and not amazon.com (though i have a hard time imagining why). i may have to pony up some overseas shipping costs.
