I think the Titanic disaster has parallels today. The closest think I can think of is the silicon chip.. We're all kind of bowing to this computer god, thinking it's going to fix everything and we're geniuses for inventing this. And, you know, I just think we should pay attention to disasters of the past.

We had a laugh about that recently because you usually get what you deserve, not what you desire, and that is especially true in Hollywood!
