Listen to Stephen Colbert read Ray Bradbury's "The Veldt" from the 1950's - as part of NPR's Selected Shorts program via YouTube.
Again, it is surprisingly prescient about how we could be letting technology raise our children, and from the number of kids I see staring at iPhones at family dinners in restaurants, I would say it is relevant.
The site (link) provides more history about this Bradbury story as well as links to other folks like Leonard Nimoy reading "The Martian Chronicles".
