What will the year 3000 be like?

As we come upon a new year, the Year 2009 I wondered at the years to come. My thoughts drifted to the Year 3000. Will we live to see it. I would be 135 years old, would I live that long? Would any of us? What would the world be like then? My hubby suggested that there might just be flying cars and my son agreed! Then again, I'm sure I read somewhere last year that there is an actual flying car in development!   We all laughed & tried to visualize the possibilities. Sure there would be animal and plant life but how would those evolve?

Can any of you imagine? What will the next 91 years be like? Will any of us live to see it? Possibly the next generation. My daughter’s child who will be born this year would be 92 then. Would he still be around? Would any of my children?

It would be amazing to see what life brings.

Donna, I know women don't like revealing their age but .... ;)

Since I would be over 900 years old I will be the one in the flying car flying straight with the right blinker on. :)

Good luck on making it to 2100 though!  I bet you have a solid shot!
