Cal,
I have no intention of trying to outrun it. I am living in Germantown, Maryland right now which still has a couple of farms around it, but they are developing everywhere. I used to live in Colesville on the outskirts of Silver Spring and when we first moved there 20 years ago, there were a good number of farms and wooded areas. Now, they are all gone. I remember driving to a farm in Howard County and passing a huge wooded lot on New Hampshire Avenue where it intersects with route 198. I always thought that place would remain, but now it is a golf course community with million dollar homes on it. Don't get me wrong, I would love to live in one of those homes, but I just hate the "progress" that we are making. I am wondering where we will be in 100 years. Probably no place to live whatsoever and where will we grow food, on the moon maybe. Better yet, we might live on the moon and leave what is left of the Earth for growing food. It is all pretty disturbing, but I guess that is what you get with technology.
