I'm curious. Since CAD's inseption during the 80's & 90's many companies simply electronified (if there is such a word) their design drafting processes. In the 21st Century will there be a paradigm shift from tradtional design drafting groups? What efficiences will traditional Design Drafting groups incorporate? Examples:
Will we head toward paperless (drawingless) engineering society?
Will PMI become a viable path?
What means will design groups explore to convey design requirements and increase the design effiency?

Share your thoughts.
 
No prob, Ken. I'd worry if too many people were on my side on this one. We both have about the same ability to discern the future that far ahead.

Acoustic guitars and 2D drawings are two things that technology might never achieve a satisfactory replacement for. So far, we're not even close.
 
... that and unscratched analog lp's.
