As we look on into the future, we're going to find that we can in effect put ourselves wherever we want to be without moving. We can create the environment we want around us. For instance, if I look on the road there, we find most of the cars that are driving by are not carrying goods. They're carrying brains, trying to take the brain to the place where the work is to be done. With modern communications and the extension of what we can see in communications and in computer power in getting information transferred back and forth, there is no reason why you could not carry on this interview at home, at your office with me at my office, etc. And I think that as we look farther into the future, we're going to find that people will live where it is conducive to live not where it is conducive to work. That the movement of the work to the individual will be much easier because as I say, most of our people are doing knowledge work, not work with physical materials so at least that half of the population, today's population, could work wherever they please without any limitation that they have to go into a particular point to do their work as long as the communications and information is available to them wherever they happen to be. Wouldn't you rather work in Hawaii.
