	From Gutenberg to the Internet: Timeline 30,000 BCE to 900 BCE
		This timeline is revised and expanded from the timeline available in the printed edition of From Gutenberg to the Internet, and widened greatly in scope.
		Of course I could not compile this timeline without the Internet and search engines, which have made a universe of information available to us virtually instantaneously wherever we happen to be connected, and have taken the scope of information beyond the written or printed page, beyond physical libraries, and beyond geographical boundaries.
		One of ways that the timeline attempts to reflect the "survival of information" is to discuss the earliest extant texts of documents, and in certain instances the history of their survival in physical form.

	Copyright Timeline
		First, technological developments and their impact on what might be copyrighted, how works might be copied, and what constituted an infringement needed to be addressed.
		Second, the revision was undertaken in anticipation of Berne Convention adherence by the U.S. It was felt that the statute needed to be amended to bring the U.S. into accord with international copyright law, practices, and policies.
		The National Commission on New Technological Uses of Copyrighted Works (CONTU) was appointed by Congress in 1976 to establish guidelines for the "minimum standards of educational fair use" under the 1976 act.

		Soon after deployment, controllers found that the telescope was flawed by a "spherical aberration," a mirror defect only 1/25th the width of a human hair, that prevented Hubble from focusing all light to a single point.
		At first many believed that the spherical aberration would cripple the 43foot-long telescope, and NASA received considerable negative publicity, but soon scientists found a way with computer enhancement to work around the abnormality and engineers planned a servicing mission to fully correct it with an additional instrument.

		Some experts have said that science fiction is, first and foremost, a search for Utopia.
		Other critics emphasize the notion that science fiction offers a "menu" of Utopian futures based on new technological contexts for the human being, intended to be self-fulfilling prophecies; and also a "menu" of Dystopian futures, in which some unhealthy trend is extrapolated to a horrible extent, intended to be cautionary tales or self-defeating prophecies.

		On the "Near side" of this timeline we have a lot of investment that represents most of the work of the Service SandT organizations.
		In contrast, out at the other end of the investment timeline - we'll call this the "Far side" - there is a much smaller investment that represents funding fundamental discoveries, where new science, new ideas, and radical new concepts typically first surface.
		Hence, DARPA mines fundamental discoveries - the Far side - and accelerates their development and lowers their risks until they prove their promise and can be adopted by the Services.
