Hm. Yeah. Forecasting the future is a shade tricky, as there are usually,
(what, us being human and all ;), a zillion and one unforeseen circumstances
that arise between "now" and "then". Sure, we can guess, but chances are,
no one is gonna be "right".

*laugh* Oh man, can I tell you how much I wish _Capital_ was shorter?
Summer before last I'm invited to a "Commie Camp" (actually the "Communist
Party of Canada Summer Educational" -- a week at a cottage with lotsa
drinkin' and *great* food) anyhow, I'm invited to this thing, and it is
suggested that I read _Capital_ before I get there. So, *vroom* I cancel
everything on my schedule for a week and a half and read Vol 1. And I
finished it. I was the *only* one there (save one prof and the leader of
the CPC) who had read it. I was the youngest one there too.
Fun bunch, great partiers, a shade too utopian for my blood, thank you. :>
Anyhoo...back to essay land for this young chihuahua. *ugh*
(ps. for those who read my "life sucks" rants of last week, things are
much better now, thanks for caring ;) It's still essay-season tho'. *sob*
*wave* have fun, y'all...see ya on the flip side.
