Remember 2000? I don't. I'm pretty sure I spent all of 1999 drinking in an underground bunker waiting for Y2K to wipe out the civilized world, upon which I would rise from my subterranean safehouse and begin my rule as World Emperor.

This is a graph depicting some of the changes in the world in the past 10 years. In case you hate graphs, I'll summarize it for you: we're screwed. Like, royally. If this were a picture it would be a king getting bent over his throne by a jester wearing a party hat and a pair of those '2010' novelty glasses. ZOMG -- not with his own scepter!
