[00:00.00]Household

[00:02.07]What kind of accommodations 

[00:04.69]will we enjoy? We are 

[00:06.66]used to having more than 

[00:08.63]adequate housing so we would 

[00:10.60]not enjoy having to convert 

[00:12.03]to a smaller residence. 

[00:14.10]The access to our homes might 

[00:16.72]be controlled for security reasons. 

[00:19.35]Our entry might be gained 

[00:21.76]by having a computer 

[00:23.29]read our fingerprint to 

[00:24.39]see if it will correspond 

[00:26.03]to the one on record to 

[00:27.88]detect if the right person 

[00:29.86]is trying to enter the residence. 

[00:31.82]Some suggestions are that 

[00:34.45]it would be better to 

[00:35.76]use the print of a thumb 

[00:37.08]so the thumbprint would be 

[00:39.15]used instead of a fingerprint.

[00:41.45]Both are a possibility.

[00:43.75]Our garbage will be put 

[00:47.14]in a garbage disposal unit 

[00:49.00]that will eliminate the need 

[00:51.41]for trash collection. Light bulbs 

[00:53.60]will seldom need to 

[00:55.89]be replaced, as they will 

[00:57.54]be made to last a minimum 

[00:58.95]of five and a maximum 

[01:00.93]of ten years. To decorate 

[01:04.21]our homes, we might just 

[01:06.39]give a description of what 

[01:08.15]we want and have it 

[01:09.68]completed by an interior 

[01:11.21]decorator with little interaction 

[01:13.84]required from us. We could 

[01:15.70]have our choice of background 

[01:17.99]music played throughout the house, 

[01:20.07]or varied from room to room. 

[01:22.15]We might hear a symphony orchestra 

[01:25.00]in one room and jazz in another. 

[01:28.28]Will we have the luxury 

[01:30.58]of having a maid 

[01:32.00]do our cleaning or will 

[01:33.75]that be unnecessary, as our 

[01:35.50]home will become self cleaning? 

[01:37.58]Will we use soap and 

[01:40.75]water to do our laundry 

[01:42.83]or will another method 

[01:44.69]that is friendly to 

[01:46.00]the environment be developed? 

[01:47.64]Will we use a furnace 

[01:49.61]to heat our home or 

[01:51.25]will we control the micro 

[01:52.68]climate indoors by the 

[01:54.43]use of solar power?

[01:56.51]For people who live 

[01:59.35]in a home in the suburbs 

[02:00.77]will the tedious chore 

[02:02.19]of mowing the lawn be 

[02:03.94]accomplished in an efficient way 

[02:05.91]by a robotic mower? 

[02:07.55]Will weeds in our grass 

[02:09.85]merely vanish as the mower 

[02:11.93]emits a time release 

[02:13.25]chemical to destroy them?
