Topic 1: Basics of Prehistory

"Prehistory, in the modern sense. The word in its archaic sense meant literally the component of its parts: Before History, or a descriptor of times that preceded recorded history. However, a modern interpretation of the word finds it more appropriate to the field of study it now represents. Like most advances in science its arrival was predicted by several independent notions: for instance the science fiction author Philip K. Dickâ??s Minority Report, with its concept of precrime, and Isaac Asimovâ??s psychohistory within his Foundation series. Life imitates art, many say, though other schools of thought pertain that predictive conceptions are but the result of common sense and logical reasoning.

As such, prehistory in its modern interpretation simply requires a reevaluation of its definition: Before History. Examining this from a geocentric point of view â?? and more specifically a temporally present perspective, it goes to follow that the present is before history â?? history that is yet to come.

With the advancement of mob psychology and the refinement of deterministic probability calculations, it is possible to calculate statistical futures. These futures are the focus of the prehistory. Its goal: to examine future histories and prevent, contain and further futures that will be beneficial to Humanity.�

Our next topic will be on: 1.2 Modern Prehistory and 1.3 Applications of Prehistory. Please take a break.

You blink, and shake the shaggy hair from your eyes. Slowly, you pull yourself from the chair and stand upright. A shaft of sunlight pours down from the ceiling where you fell through the rusted steel, and shines on the dent in the overgrown wreckage you made when you landed on your head.

There's no way you can climb up to the gap, not even with your Homo sapien (where did that come from?) muscles, and the walls are too strong to try and knock down. Not to mention it'll get dark - if not soon then at some point. You've got to return to your tribe and fire, or they'll nomadically leave without you.

On the other hand though, that machine chair has had a strange effect on you. You've not known your tribesmen to be verbose or to think of much other than the next meal, and you weren't much different. In fact, the only reason you got into the chair was because you thought it might be edible.

Now though, your name is JOSEPH DERTHAL. You're not sure if that was your name before, or whether you really had one. And you know now that there's more! The EduChair - yes, that was its name - gave you a basic knowledge of reading and mathematics and so on. And you can feel that there's so much more forthcoming. You just have to -??

!

A light catches your eye, and instinct causes you to whirl about, centering it in your vision. Then you realize it's only a flashing light on the console facing the EduChair. You approach it slowly, eyeing its urgent flickering. Then you read the label stuck underneath it, written in a sterile but imperative type, is CLASS RESUMED : LATE FOR CLASS!!!
