People used to know more or less how their children would live. Now things are changing so quickly that we don`t even know what our own lives will be like in a few years. What follows is not science fiction. It`s how expects see the future.

What`s for lunch? In the old days, you used to stop off to buy a hamburger or pizza. Now you use your diagnostic machine to find out which foods your body needs. You find out you need more vegetables and less fat. Your food-preparation machine makes you a salad.
