I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream
Of warm impermanence
And so the days float through my eyes
But still the days seem the same
And these children that you spit on
As they try to change their worlds
Are immune to your consultations
They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

What's the game here?

Random strange thought. Google has a satellite. There are those mysterious barges. Multiple barges. Google is attempting to get into our heads with glass. They control a large percentage of search and how people obtain information. And now comes word that Google has been buying up robotics companies, including Boston Dynamic which is fielding the Big Dog (as well as other military robots).

Do no evil, my ass.

Google is Skynet.

8/29/17.

That was the date, wasn't it?

Arnold was only off by 20 years.

Are you sure Google isn't the progenitor for The Borg?

(There's your Star Trek 3 pitch, right there. It turns out the Delta Quadrant is the Alpha Quadrant of the future, and The Borg are just Google after a thousand years of search optimization, social networking, and assorted lifestyle gadgets. "You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile," is shortened from "I want you to be assimilated into one of my G+ Circles! Why the futile resistance to switching over from Facebook?")

Bonnie, well, we can't all be perfect.

Eric, well, I'm not discounting it, google glass and all.
