predictions for the future
from the ladies' home journal, december 1900.
that's actually very impressive. they completely didn't expect the computer and the airplane, and they didn't dare say anything about contraception, but a lot of their expectations did come about. much of it not quite in the way they anticipated, but still. i don't think that i could do as well today.
love the preoccupation with pneumatic tubes. pneumatic tubes! i wish for them! they make my steampunky heart happy.

pneumatic tubes
this would probably not make anyone else laugh as much as i just did. :)
unfortunately i didn't get to see any pneumatic tubes. now i feel robbed, robbed i tell you!
i wonder whether they use any here. they did at the last two i worked at, which was a long time ago. loved it.
