    If you could make a list of things that could be rare or expensive in 50 or more yrs.

    Things I would think would become rare & expensive in 50 or more years:

    NOW That's What I call Music: Volumes 1-19
    5 inch blank floppy disks
    3.5 inch blank floppy disks
    A Nintendo Entertainment System
    Super Mario Bros 1-3
    The original Pong
    A Magnavox Odyssey (First home video game console)
    An Apple I or II (Very cheap @ eBay, but not for long!)
    GTA: San Andreas (Removed from shelves... Hmm, that would be a rare item)
    American Online Internet Setup Disks/CDs 2.5-9.0 (Have all of them! :D)
    Original MS-DOS 1 disk with manuals
    Original Windows 3x disk with manuals
    Harry Potter books
    Anything Star Wars from the 70's till now
    Anything Elvis

    wtf? 5.14 million copies have already been sold. And not everyone has removed it from their shelves. Even with all that they will be re-releasing a fixed version.

  11. ...Scary but true, being nearly £1 a LTR or nearly a fiver a gallon I hate to think what it will be in 50 years time, although hey wait a minute I will probably be either too old to drive, dead or will have abandoned the automobile for a spaceship ;)

    ''Dude no1:Pepsi air is better!
    Dude no2: No, Coke Air is better!
    Dude no4: Hey, it's smells the same thing, dudes.. ''

    :smt045:smt082

    if anyone care about were dude no3 is. well, it's because aprox. 1/3 of the population lives in poverity, so that's 1/3 that won't be able to pay for cans of air, you know. So that's like dude no1: Okay, Dude no2: Okay Dude no3: X Dude no4: Okay dude no 5: Okay Dude no6: X, and so on.

    I work in the second most expensive petrol station in Limerick. Unleaded and diesel are both 112 cent per litre (about $5.12 per US gallon)! The only place that's more expensive is next to a BMW dealer (and owned by the same person).

    Mankind, I hope.


    But seriously - Let's hope the reason Gasoline is rare 50 years from now is that alternative energy is finally used.

    Otherwise, humans are likely to be rare as well.
    And to tell you the truth, we'll deserve it.
