As we pass from 2005 to 2006, the march of time takes us inexorably further into the future, and the date is closer now to 2010 than it is to 2001. I don't want to go all Golden Agey on you, but it does feel like we've moved from a clean, pristine, Kier Dullea and Stanley Kubrick philosophical thriller world into a darker, louder, Roy Scheider and Peter Hyams action movie world. Or am I just getting nostalgic in my old age?
And where's my moon base, dammit? I'm pretty sure I was promised a moon base.
On the plus side, didn't 2010 have a sort of happyish ending, as opposed to merely confusing?
As for the moon base, it blew up back in 1999.
