R.H.H. did a short story about people who no longer traveled in cars. All the traveling was done via 200mph walk ways. I wonder if this came out about the same time. | |||

I remember going to the New York Worlds Fair in 1964 where they had a lot of futuristic ideas presented. Some were close, a lot were not. The Dick Tracy cartoons of the time had him communicating on his two way wrist radio and are probably the closest to how the future turned out. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

"The Roads Must Roll" is a 1940 science fiction short story by American writer Robert A. Heinlein. It was selected for The Science Fiction Hall of Fame, Volume One, 1929–1964 anthology in 1970. (From Wikipedia) Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent. | |||

One of the items that back then could not predict, however we in the present can for our future is that there will either be a genderless society or many numerous genders. I do not like nor agree with it. God Bless  "Always legally conceal carry. At the right place and time, one person can make a positive difference." | |||
