QUESTION CORNOR

Recently we asked about Earth in Y3K:

* There will probably be a space station or something close to that. We will have smart houses that are operated by computers and robots that do everything you don’t want to do, for example, homework!

--Rachel, 10,

Helmer’s Elementary,

Valencia

* Earth will be destroyed and we will live on the moon. We won’t have war or need electricity. We will have flying cars and skateboards and machines that zap trash and make it disappear.

--James, 11,

Palos Verdes Intermediate,

Rancho Palos Verdes

* Cars will fly and move by themselves and know where you want to go. Houses will be made out of glass. The TV will be on the roof. There will be no more airplanes. There will be a city under water. Houses will be round and some will be underground.

--Katherine, 7,

Charnock Road Elementary,

Los Angeles

Kids, what will Earth be like in the year 3000? Will we still drive cars and live in houses? Will there be colonies on other planets? What do you think? Tell us your Y3K predictions in 50 words or fewer. See “How to Write to Us” on this page for more information.
