I don't remember the cool cable car ride, but I remember the Gyrotron in the background and the minirails and the radio controlled model icebreaker show and the geodesic dome of the US pavilion, and the 360-degree Ontarirariario movie!

So much of that is so vague, I wish I could see some of it again.

Wow, i didn't know you were there! You musta been a little guy.

I remember knowing Expo '72 was going on.

Sad we don't still have the same celebration gathering things for futurism and optimism and such.

I was seven. With siblings up to 17 years old who saw and remembered more than I did. Apparently they saw through more than I did, because I was completely amazed and blown away by the whole thing, while they weren't so impressed.

Cynical teenage smarties? They probably were ahead of the curve, vs. the general public, I imagine.
