It’s wild to me that this book (written in 1999) is set in an alt-2011 where there is a “hip, teen version of National Geographic” because in the actual summer of 2011 I got to have lunch with a lady who worked at the National Geographic Society who was impressed I was 18 and had been a member since I was 11, and my first suggestion for what they could do differently was “Bring back World as your magazine for teens, more advanced than how Kids is now, but less dense than the main ‘adult’ magazine”.

And then they didn’t do that and within 5 years they had to sell their TV channels to Fox and then Disney. I’m not saying that alone would have brought in enough money to change the outcome, but…
