Hi Dave,
I do a bit of consulting work within the telecom industry to pay for my
glorious comedy career, and one of my clients is interested in sitting
down with a few "futurists" to discuss with them their vision of the
future for US consumers looking out about 10 years.
This person should have a focus on consumer issues, a sensitivity to
(but not necessarily expertise) technology and, preferably, not be
totally off the wall (though a few of those are welcome). I don't have
any references for futurists other than Google and would like to get to
a bit more quality-controlled list. I figured IP was a good first stop.
Examples include Jim Carroll and Faith Popcorn, but there must be more
who are reputable.
IP readers can contact me at this email address.
Thanks!
