THE PAST IS JUST THE BEGINNING
There is in Washington D.C., a sign over the entrance to the U.S. Patent Office -- where new things are the order of the day. The sign proclaims: "The Past is but Prologue."
One day a tourist asked a cab driver what the sign meant. Said the cabbie: "It means, ’Brother, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet!’"
