The Use of Computers in Movies

The slide is space may have alot to do with the fact that the NASA Executive program was moved from NASA to Langley(computers too), CIA like how DOJ and Pentagon now report to CIA. So, alot of the time and teleportation stuff(see ‘Val’ Plame) has moved from astronauts to regular spies like the movie ‘Vanity Fair.’ Back in time instead of forward should remind everybody of George’s dad, but this is really a mistake like NSA being all military instead of regualr business people.
