Ages,eras and wars will always be defined when they are over,or at least well after they have started.
In the year 1914,for example,no one said:'Tomorrow I'm going to go and fight in the First World War.
'Why not?
Because it was not generally called the First World War until the Second World War had started>Similarly,no one ever said:'Next year will be the start of Industrial Revolution.
'The era now known as the Industrial Revolution only started being called that once it was well under way.
By the time we are old,we will all have experienced enormous technological advances.
We might even be walking round with computer chips implanted in our bodies,or perhaps computer chip technology will have been replaced by even more advanced technology.
There's talk at the moment that human skin itself might make an excellent electronic circuit board.
we can all make predictions,but nobody knows for sure.
And nobody knows what the era we will live in the near future will be called by future historians.
If we already live in the Computer Age or the information Age as some people suggest,the present-day era will be referred to by future historians,then who knows what era we're just at the beginning of right now?
