I'm a Farmer being pulled along in my crop duster field and I see a tractor coming to replace me any my mule Dumbhank. I'm a Machinist at an automaker, one of the top four car manufacturers in America, and I see the new robot assembly coming to replace me and my tools. I'm a trainer-course developer-course designer-instructor-Director of training-CLO at a corporation in the Information Economy and I see ( ) coming to replace me.

It's inevitable. It's coming soon to a job near you. The question is - what is it? What will replace us and make us part of American history, a memory of another Economic Era in which the analog ruled, and the model was The Citadel where all the old Industrial Economy rules and regulations applied?
