More Time Travel, less serious

I would want to travel to the future. Perhaps a million or so years. I'm kind of a tech geek, so I am more interested in what we will do than what we have done.The cool thing about this sort of time travel is that it could be possible. "The Worthing Saga" by Orson Scott Card is a collection of short stories, one of which talks about a society where people are cryogenically stored and then woken up at certain intervals. Sounded cool to me.

Interesting take. Perhaps futurists are optimists while historians are pessimists?I say a million because if we continue on our current trajectory we should have the answers to all of the big fantasies I tend to enjoy. Is faster than light travel doable? Can we download our consciousness into digital form?I doubt we will have the technology to build lightsabers in the next 100 years, so why go there? Medical, shmedical. What good is it to be old and healthy if there isn't anything cool to do? I would rather live to be 50 years old and travel the galaxy than live to 200 and drive around Arizona.Perhaps the question of the past vs. future is really pointing to some deeper philosophy. Us futurists think that the present is missing something that can be found through new horizons. Those who want to travel to the past may think that we have lost something along the way, that what we are missing can be found in the past. Who knows.
