The turn of the next millennium is still a long way off, but that hasn’t stopped scientists from simulating what future human evolution might look like when the year 3000 hits. The result? A computer simulation called “Mindy” features some pretty interesting changes that scientists say humanity could face if the current trends in technology continue.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.
