Star Trek made dreaming legitimate.

Growing up, I was always blown away by 'Star Trek' and 'Barbarella' and 'Logan's Run.' The retro sci-fi thing.

The 'Star Trek' future, to me, is where we are headed. Everything is automated, and we are free to pursue our dreams.

Sci-fi always runs out a little bit ahead of reality, right? Automatic doors in 'Star Trek,' stuff like that. It all happened, didn't it, finally?
