The other day, the construction and the maintenance crew engaged in the expansion bays chanced upon a heavy metallic object, about 200 meters underground. Cleaning up the outer surface of the object clearly stated that it is a Time Capsule, vacuum packed in high grade Titanium. Our advanced dating Lab has pinpointed the time of it’s placement to be the year 2025 (± 5 years). The sponsor of this Capsule was an organization named the ‘Armed Forces Veteran Officers’ Association, Chennai - AFVOA for short. It is very clear that the people from AFVOA knew a thing or two about preserving their contemporary lifestyle for posterity, as retrieving the contents of the Time Capsule took a mammoth effort.

This innocuous event has set off an exercise in fantasy of leap frogging 500 years into the future. The date is Jul 26, 2521 . The daily news is disseminated through a medium known as Mindread Blast carried out in real time which the citizens can read and see the associated images in their mind without having to read a Newspaper or tune into a TV News Channel. Since the readers of this generation in general and Members of AFVOA in particular do not have the Mindread Blast compilers built into their minds yet, the news gathered from the cloud has been converted and scaled down into the contemporary style of presenting the news item for ease of reference.
