Camping Star Trek Style

 

In 30 years: “No longer will change be the domain of the sanctioned, the privileged, the educated and the influential. Where once we required the support and might of an organization to try to make change, we don’t need that any more.

And this force will gain momentum and speed in the next 30 years.”
