I was just thinking about that blasted song, 'The year 3000'. The chorus goes, 'I've been to the year 3000/Not much has changed 'cept they live under water/ And your great great great grandaughter is pretty fine'. Hold on a mo......Considering that the average generation is 25 years, let's say, my great great great granddaughter would be born around the year 2125. This would make her around 875 years old in the year 3000. Now, unless there have been amazing advances in a) genetics and b) cosmetic surgery, I suspect that my great great great granddaughter would be, at the very least, pretty manky, if not seriously decomposed....
