"How can a doubling of knowledge be any use?? Look around, you're no longer living in a cave, at least not a literal one."
I agree completely with that observation struggler but the point I was making is this -if knowledge base now doubles every 2 years then it is mind boggling to imagine what it will be in 10 years!

ever play 2up?, was at a big game one night years ago in Broken Hill ,very strict rules,no booze,no pets,no women,just hard players,anyway this young bloke started with $200 and tossed EIGHT sets of heads before passing in.Reason I mention this is because he was on double or broke for each toss ,figure out what he took home-mind you the sweat was pouring off him and everyone was side betting against him, boy was a good one.

Gives some meaning to the word expotential!
