- 12. “Fasten your seatbelts. The turbulence
has scarcely begun. With accelerating
speed, we’ve transcended boundary after
boundary of diversity and complexity.
The past is ever less predictive; the future
is ever less predictable and the present
scarcely exists at all”
(Dee Hock, Birth of the Cha-ordic Age)
