   We need a see-what-technology-does-to-make-everyday-life-
easier movie. And not the gee-whiz timbre of "Fast Forward"
and "The Computer Programme" either. NASA has been using
this approach for years: if people want to complain about
evil technology and government waste on the space program,
let them give back their microwave ovens and pocket
calculators and non-stick pans.

   I think Wargames was a step in the opposite direction.
