"Prediction is hard, especially about the future."

"I like the future, but it's not what it used to be."

I adored early EPCOT, and I still like it for the foreign side, but somebody decided that trying to keep up with the future was either ridicule-provoking ("Flying cars? REALLY?!") or confusing ("Mommy, why do they act like video calls are a big deal?"). A pity, but I can understand how it would be easier to ignore what EPCOT originally stood for and just build nice restaurants. But thank you for the look back, Emily!
