Warren freely admits he didn't coin the word (see <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pajamahadeen" rel="nofollow">this wikipedia page</a> for origin details), but I'm so glad he wrote about it, for it was new to me. How's life in Hell these days? Oh wait, don't answer that -- we're there already, aren't we? :-) Ah, monsieur Pitchfork, how delightful that you stopped by…!

But what should I expect? Every time I come here there's something delightful for my brain to consume. Cheers! Now that is brilliant! But what should I expect?

I first blogged it nearly 3 years ago on <a href="http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/yulelog/2004/11/25/epic/" rel="nofollow">November 25, 2004</a>, and when the update came out again, last year, on <a href="http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/yulelog/2006/09/02/remember-epic/" rel="nofollow">September 2, 2006</a>. It's a totally compelling story, quite rivetting. The future (future-present?, present-future?) won't resemble EPIC exactly, but we won't be able to brush aside the resemblance, of that I'm sure. I like to think that David Weinberger's ways of thinking around this issue of webby-ness has some mitigating reality factor that throws the monkey wrench into the EPIC scenario. Reality is messy -- miscellaneous, if you will. That's good. Messy can be good. Messy can save us. Now go clean your room! ;-) Oh yeah, Caramia, I’ve heard of Epic!

Epic 2014 was put out in 2004 - much of what it predicts has come true. There was an update to bring it in line with events - Epic 2015.
