Star Trek, isdachu?
Just when we were discussing about LCD technology, electronic graffiti and moving postcards, check this out: paper-thin TV screens.
And coming out soon to a keypad near you: TV on Mobile. Speaking of, something which would dress my Eleanor up to the nines.

You thought we had lots of time in our hands.
me: may naisip lang ako
some engineer who wants himself called MTP: anu?
me: going back to filipinos being special...
me: parang masyado tayong busy na i-assure ang sarili natin na ok maging filipino
me: pero ang mga kapitbahay natin global na ang view nila.
me: mag-ka-college sa new york, magre-research sa italy about the renaissance.
MTP: childhood interrupted kasi tayo e
me: kasi inisip ko, masyado tayong busy maglinis ng bahay yung iba lumilipat na
MTP: nakikita ko ang tuldok mo
me: kitams
MTP: pero in a way the article says a lot of things about how pinoys are already global...
me: tingin ko marketing lang ang problema talaga. sad to say, di nag-a-apply ang bad publicity is still publicity sa atin.
me: Panspermia is the theory that seeds of life exist throughout the universe and that life on Earth arose when those seeds landed on our planet eons ago.
MTP: marketing nga lang. tingnan mo ang thailand at malaysia. ang galing magmarket ng tourism industry nila
me: true
MTP: saka dun sa book na 1000 places to see before you die, 3 lang daw ang galing sa pinas. mas marami pa ang thailand at vietnam
me: anong book yan?
MTP: 1000 places to see before you die nga
me: 1000 lang?
me: In evolutionary biology, the Red Queen Hypothesis states that a species must constantly be moving (adapting and evolving) in order to stay in the same place (remain in existence).
me: pwede na akong promil kid
MTP: pwede
MTP: nabasa mo na ba ang childhood's end?
me: hindi. parang ayoko.
MTP: why?
me: parang harsh eh
MTP: anyway. may view ako na parang ganun nangyari sa pinoy kaya ang worldview niya hindi global in the western sense
me: please expound
MTP: the title of the book implies that the human race is a child. and the overtakers came here to nurture that child
MTP: tapos nung ready na yung child, they welcomed that child into the wider galactic community of beings. kaya childhood's end
me: may mga concept din syang ganyan sa rama
MTP: oo nga. paulit ulit lang naman siya e. ganyan din sa 2001.
me: oo nga paulit-ulit. kainis.
MTP: anyway, back to pinoys, ang tingin ko naman hindi childhood's end. childhood interrupted nga
me: in-interrupt ni bonifacio
MTP: pwede, pero sa view ko in-interrupt ng mga colonizers
me: yung isang tingin ko naman, benevolent ang mga colonizers. benevolent assimilation remember?
MTP: kasi watak-watak noon, tapos pinag-sama-sama under one banner ang mga islands. hindi hinayaang either magdevelop into an archipelago of nations or an archipelago of one nation on its own
me: isang libo't isang tuwa
MTP: mula appari hanggang jolo
MTP: ayun. so walang integrated worldview ang pinoy ngayon. hilaw
MTP: di tulad ng japan, na archipelago rin, pero may sense of one-ness
me: there was a time na naisip ko what can possibly change the philippines is a civil war, or any event at the cataclysmic level.
MTP: sino ang maglalaban? tagalogs vs others?
MTP: hehe
me: pwede.
me: tapos sasamantalahin ng mindanao ang kaguluhan para magkaroon na ng bangsamoro
me: para madali nang mangibang-bansa di ba? sakay ka lang ng bus, nasa ibang lupalop ka na.
MTP: maganda yan. tapos in the end may leader na mag-yu-unite ng united states of the philippines
MTP: united islands
me: hmmm...mas gusto ko ata greater east asia co-prosperity sphere. he he he.
MTP: tapos magiging philippine dollar na ang pera
me: baguhin na rin ang pangalang philippines. kasi the civil war will be a time of high patriotic emotions.
MTP: Hinirang!
MTP: revolutionary president si dean. yihee
