En L'an 2000
Editor's note -- SAD AND USELESS the most depressive humor site on the net found "Illustrations by French artist Villemard in 1910 of how he imagined the future to be in the year 2000". Unfortunately, Boing Boing already ran a Villemard post on Wed. Sept 12, 2007.
S&U's post wasn't entirely useless as it featured more than one postcard but, sadly, the blog does not have "BB's Paris liaison, Alex Boucherot, editor of
Fluctuat".
Fluctuat".

A Gentleman's Folly
Editor's note -- Broadway Tower was designed by English architect James Wyatt as a folly for Lady Coventry in 1794. She wondered if she could see a pretend castle 22 miles away from her home. Yes. By 1799, Lady Coventry could see it clearly.
A folly is a building so extravagant that it transcends the normal range of garden ornaments.
