Yeah. That line "Just like every other technological revolution in history", just blew me up. WTF?

NO. There hasn't ever been anything like this even possible.

The complexity of every aspect of this 5GUW is mind numbing (to me) and taken as much as one can, together, defy a "two minute cliff notes" approach to communicating the shocking reality of what's happening to anyone not well versed, and that's most of them.

Our small city near the Wisconsin border has had an empty 1.8 million square foot former Motorola plant. The hubris of the founders grandson plopped it here amongst no main highways and rail in 1997. It was making phones. Not digital but ANALOG. Very stupeedo wouldn’t you say? But the city bought the magic. Some made bookoo bucks. Well, by 2003 it was gone with the mammoth building rotting in the northern Illinois air. A couple of years ago it was bought by an investor. Oops. Subsequently arrested for securities fraud and the Feds took over the building. Nothing until recently and there are Federal signs, keep out shit and cameras all over near the road. If you crane your neck you could see trucks and guys in hazmat suits, etc. bet there’s dogs too. I heard today from a zoning committee member that the CIA has taken it over and I’m sure CIA contractors or such are ensconced. This zoning person has no reason to lie but won’t say much. I wonder if it will remain on Google maps. Lol. I’m keeping my ears and eyes open.
