This 1981 brochure promoting the soon-to-be-opened Epcot Center has been scanned and keyed in by the 2719 Hyperion blog. It's a treasure trove of forgotten goofy futuristic exhibits from the heyday of Epcot, before it got run down, its relentlessly optimistic exhibit on the future of transportation replaced with a thrill ride, its happy plug for the oil industry replaced with a comedy episode of Jeopardy!, and its giant golf-ball centerpiece topped with a pointy hat.

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.
