There's a guy named Randy Pausch, a professor at Carnegie Mellon, who is gave his 'last lecture' because he is dying of pancreatic cancer. The lecture has caught a lot of attention. He's been on Oprah, etc. The lecture if you are interested is available on the Carnegie Mellon site: Video site.
One of the topics that Randy talks about in his lecture are his childhood dreams. Being that he's kind of a geeky guy some of his dreams involved being in zero gravity, being Captain Kirk and being a Disney Imagineer. Well thought out, but not surprising dreams for someone of his age. In his lecture he encourages having these dream/goals and he goes over how he achieved his dreams.
With all the changes in the world, can you even imagine what geeky kids will be dreaming about 40 years from now? What will kids want to be? What will they want to achieve?
