Or more, we will understand things so that ownership isn't necessary. It is only when men meddle in things of God where it all falls apart? The humanistic deconstruction and rebuilding of principles, theory, reality, and such misses something.

It has saved me already. "The Cloud" is storing your files, music, pictures out there, somewhere, you know...IN THE CLOUD, man! You can access it anywhere, but it is not resident with you. It's like having your file cabinets in Poughkeepsie.<br /><br />@Doom- Excellently creepy. Just not far enough.

Our money will be stored for us, to be accessed when, where, and how banks (and others) decide. Our vehicles, bikes, skis... will all be given to us upon need (or want?), with stipulations of course.
