One of the things that makes it so hard is how exciting and interesting the future is going to be.  I have always been a bit of a science fiction nerd and have enjoyed new technological wizardry.  I have recently become very interested in the idea of integrated computational systems, computer systems that are integrated seamlessly into our everyday actions and thoughts.  Its an area that I find fascinating and a bit worrying.  Now that it looks like such systems are only 10 years away it is just another reason that I start to get angry that it looks like I will not live long enough to see or, preferably, get involved in such developments.

It is just one of the many many reasons I find I am so angry.  Not as bad as knowing all the cliffs that are out there that I am not climbing but still pretty annoying 😛
