Yes, I think a lot of us feel this nostalgic yearning for a revival of more science&techno-optimistic times.

We are tired of the constant cynicism, negativity, and small-minded thinking. It's too easy to be a cynic. To put everyone & everything down, and to feel intellectually superior. You see it all over on the Internet and in the real world too, it's a true mind virus. It'll never die, but one can only hope more people just get tired of it.

I will teach my kids that a cynic is a man who knows the price of everything, and the value of nothing.
