Are you the future? You may just be a character from a 1983 movie, but you may also be the answer to war casualties, to battle-inflicted PTSD, to guns, to bombs and even to the kind of war I know. Will World War III be fought via internet, a real-life game of battleship or tic-tac-toe? If this is the case, then the advantages change completely. No terrain, no secret agents, no stealth bombers, just screens, keyboards and mice. The new A-Bomb will take the form of HTML code. Terrorism from a comfy rolling chair. Do you think that the winner of this war will gain his/her title because of technology or strategy? In this new electronic warfare, people will not die; that is the ideal situation. In an age where the digital world is being incorporated into the manual world more and more every day, how long will it be before our wars are just simulated games? I hope it happens soon, Mr. Lightman, because then this world would be a better place.
Sincerely,
Charlie.
