His anger and frustration will grow without limit, and he will find himself, poor perverse bulb, enjoying it.If Ray Kurzweil predictions continue to come true, machines will be smarter than humans in just a few years. No longer will he seek to get off the wheel. He is condemned to go on forever, knowing the truth and powerless to change anything. But on Byron has been visited an even better fate.
