[1992 will be remembered as the year
most people will want to forget, because Americans] will
be jolted into the realization that the institutions and
experiments of the industrial age are ill-equipped to
meet the demands of the emerging global age. -
1991
~~~
During the old industrial age, the
split between trade education and college education
became very apparent. Now ... there'll be a bond
between technology and academia. - 1993
~~~
Telecommunications, technology, and
computer software companies will be the entrepreneurs of
the '90s and beyond, making these fields potential
gold mines for investors. - 1993
~~~
The trend toward working at home
will escalate ... more and more people are going out on
their own. They don't want to work for large
companies anymore. They are going to run businesses out
of their offices at home. - 1993
~~~
More parents working at home,
combined with dissatisfaction in public schools will
swell the ranks of children being educated at home. -
1993
~~~
We are moving out of the industrial
age into a technological global age ... The institutions
that were developed during the industrial age - health
care, businesses, politics, education, religion - are all
restructuring. People are not focusing on this, even
though it is a worldwide phenomenon. This transition
period is going to be difficult for those who don't
recognize the nature and dynamics of the change. -
1993
~~~
People are becoming addicted to all
this stuff. It's like television. Look at the
education fall-off since television began. Why? Kids are
vegging out. People are becoming isolated from the
outside world, literally and figuratively. They're
dealing with pieces of equipment, rather than each other.
- 1993

We're moving at an exponential
rate of change. This whole technological revolution is
unsettling to a lot of us. These times are so uncertain
for so many people, they're looking to the past for
some kind of anchor. - 1995
