The electronic cottage idea was at first opposed and mocked by the old order. Today, during the COVID-19 scare, many organizations are requiring employees to telecommute and use the Internet from their electronic cottages. At first we rushed to mob grocery stores to hoard staples such as toilet paper, then realized that we were compounding our exposure to this newly discovered risk. Reacting, we started to return to a method of acquiring groceries abandoned in the 1950’s ordering on line for delivery...
Futurists, curiously, do not predict the future – they open our eyes to the possibilities. But only if we allow our minds, which are certainly capable, to consider the
deeper forces of progress and resistance that are in constant conflict. We are in the middle of the newer force for decentralization against the old order of centralization.
