7 Next Steps in Human Evolution - What will humans look like in the distant future?

A look at the future evolution of humans and what they may look like in 5,000, 10,000 or even 100,000 years, assuming humans still exist that far in the future. Will humans evolve into superhumans or into Vogons? This list will outline seven major changes we can expect to see over the next hundred thousand years – if civilization continues along the same path it treads today.
