It's Toffler: _Future Shock_ sequels are _The Third Wave_ and
_Powershift_. I read these last 2 but not future shock. IMHO 90%
of what he says is fairly obvious and/or intuitive, tho it helps
to have someone actually lay it all out. _Powershift_ is recommended.

I might be interested in the mailing list. Depends on what the
subject actually is...?
