I Will probobally be on some sort of implanted life support system invented in 2075, still being alive at that age by numerous artificially-grown organ transplants, genetically engineered to survive longer. Aging will cease to exist in the year 2150, due to scientists discovery of why the aging process stops at ~90 years of age. Overpopulation will exponentially increase, due to >100 year old people walking the earth.

NASA will send the first man to Mars, and start colonization of Mars in hopes of releaving the immence overpop. problem on earth. Global warming will actually begin to decline, as taxes for smog-inducing industry will far outweigh the cost of developing a 'green' (environmentally friendly) manufacturing process.

Humans will have already colonised the moon, moving out of 'greenhouses' which are basicly bubbles of atmosphere and habitable buildings. To the outer reaches of the moon, now habitable due to both an artificial atmosphere, and an induced rotation (the moon doesnt actually rotate atm).

Political and market corruption will be at an all-time high, with the bans on subconcious advertisments being revoked, and new products being put on the market to counter the effects of subconcious advertising. The US economy as it is today will cease to exist, and instead all the economys of the Earth will be united into the "Earth-Sphere Economy". This is possible now because of the speed of the internet in place at that time, and virtural seller-buyer meetings are possible.

All humans will be required to have a cerebral implant, as well as medical nano-mites injected into the bloodstream. Doctor's visits are completed in 5 minutes, solving 50% of the healthcare problem. Occupations that require repetition no longer exist, but are rather done by robots. Programming, engineering, and teaching carreers will be paid the highest salaries, as the jobs would be in high demand all the time.

Children are required to have IQ scores > 100 points, their neural implants evaluate the student based on ALL aspects of their personalities with scoring weighted by the traits that are conducive to being successful in the top occupations. Learning is eiasier, as teachers can now adapt classes completely in tune with student needs, as a student's learning gateway (visual, audio, touch, etc) is automatically picked up by the implant.

Poverty ceases to exist, as many economical problems are alleviated by the Earth-Sphere worldwide market, and the now excessive availability of healthcare.

.... I can continue forever ^_^ but I think my wrists are starting to numb.... >_<

plus, I have SL to get back to ;)

EDIT:
Note:
This is all just a writeup of what first came to my mind when I saw the words "A.D. 2101" so, no Im not from the future, and no, Im not insane :D (well... at least not most of the time ;) )

Yes, war was beginning because various countries are running out of resources. Probably most of the countries of the world will have nukes, and if they cant survive nobody can and everybody dies when the world is nuked enough to eliminate all life, like a few hundred times over.

Happy Times! :)

Yes, war was beginning because various countries are running out of resources, and using the same thread over and over. Probably most of the countries of the world will have nukes, albeit "Nukes" is what the people of that century call fake implanted breasts, and an occasioanl dog. And if they cant survive, no tupaware can and everybody dies when the world is "nuked" enough to eliminate all life-like bosoms, like a few hundred times over.

OMG! I wish I hadnt followed this line of reasoning:

In the future, when life expetancy is several hundred years plus, and all reproduction and child-rearing is done via machines, women will have no further need for breasts!!! They will probably be 'evelutionised' away!

Guys, look at as many breasts as you can, WHILE you can!!!

Har :D
