(Methinks someone cracked open the thesaurus.)

With prognostications ranging from "the popular hair texture of choice will be curly," to the outrageous "robot/avatar models with features that look totally different from everyday people will represent and sell products world-wide," Banks, whose credentials for crafting such a piece I'm not completely aware of, certainly touches on a few outlandish concepts.
