Identity cards are also getting 'smarter'. Many countriesalready have a system which recluires heir citizens o carnidentification cards. These cards usually nclucle ersonalinformation such as name, address and birth date as n,ellas a personal dcntification

The benefits of all these new ID systems are obvious.Imagine walking into yclur office at work.

he thing the Time Traveller

held in his hand was aglittering metallic framework,

no larger than a small clock, an dvery delicately made. He took one ofthe small octagonal tables that werescattered about the room, and set itin front of the fire. On this table heplaced the mechanism. Then he drewup a chair and sat down. The onlyother object on the table was a smalllamp. There were also perhaps adozen candles about, so that theroom was brilliantly illuminated. I satin a low armchair nearest the fire,and I drew this forward so as to bealmost between the Time Travellerand the fireplace. Filby sat behindhim, looking over his shoulder. TheMedical Man and the ProvincialMayor watched him in profile fromthe right, the Psychologist from the

left. The Very Young Man stoodbehind the Psychologist. We were allon the alert. It appears ncredible tome that any klnd of trick could havebeen played upon us under theseconditions.

The Time Traveller looked at us,and then at the mechanism. "Well?',said the Psychologist.

"This little affair," said the TimeTraveller, resting his elbows upon thetable and pressing his hands togetherabove the apparatus, "is only amodel. It is my plan for a machineto travel through time. You willnotice that it looks quite uneven, andthat there is an odd twinklingappearance about this bar, as thoughit was in some way unreal." Hepointed to the part with his finger."Also, here is one little white lever,and here is another."

The Medical Man got up out ofhis chair and looked into the thing."It's beautifully made," he said.

"It took two years to make," saidthe Time Traveller. Then, when wehad all imitated the action of theMedical Man, he said: "Now, f wantyou clearly to understand that thislever, being pressed over, sends th emachine into the future, and thisother reverses the motion. Thissaddle represents the

seat of a timetraveller. Presently I am going topress the lever, and off the machinewill go. It will vanish, pass intofuture Time, and disappear. Have agood look at the thing. Look at thetable too, and satisfy yourselves thereis no trickery. I don't want to wastethis model, and then be told I,m aquack."

There was a minute's pause,

perhaps. The Psychologist seemedabout to speak to me, but changedhis mind. Then the Time Travellerput forth his finger towards the lever."No," he said suddenly. "Lend meyour hand." And turning to thePsychologist, he took that individual,shand in his own and told him to putout his forefinger, so that it was thePsychologist himself who sent forththe model Time Machine on itsvoyage. We all saw the lever turn. Iam absolutely certain there was notrickery. There was a breath of wind,and the lamp flame jumped. One ofthe candles on the mantel was blownout, and the little machine suddenlyswung round, became indistinct, wa sseen as a ghost for a second perhaps;and it was gone - vanished Savefor the lamp, the table was bare.

A I strongly believe hat we rely too much on technologt todcty. Thismeans that we are losing imponant skills stLch as personolcommunication. For instance, eople who spend ong hours n lront o.fa computer no longer know how to talk to other people, and may evert

feel uncomfoftable n the company of others.

B I think computer games are good stuff. They help us leam all abouttechnology. This is impofiant 'cctuseit'll help us to get ready for our

future obs. You know, all cfis in the uture will need computer skills.
