So I tapped the young man in question on the shoulder and said.“Excuse me can you please give me back my purse?”Of cours
39、e the pickpocket had no idea what I was saying (and didnt want to know) and proceeded to shrug his shoulders and basically say (in French) “I dont speak English”?Meanwhile my Mother (a Scotswoman with a bad temper), came to see why I had stopped walking and what was going on. When I informed her of
40、the situation she lost control and started yelling at the thief who still stood there making gestures in French while a crazy Scotswoman harangued(指责) him. At this stage we were starting to attract onlookers, and when my Mother started hitting the young man with her handbag the would-be thief decide
41、d it was time to get away.Luckily, amid all the disorder the thief lost his control of my purse, and as he made a break-for-it, my purse dropped to the ground!

46、 at another table an old man searches the Web for something.Now imagine this scene through the eyes of a technologist from 100 years ago. This is someone who has thought carefully about how technology and society might develop during the twentieth century.Surprising may be the realization that some
