Boxing Day Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 I love when the old Looney Toons cartoon showed 90's as a Futurama-type of civilization with flying cars and shit. People had big expectations for us , sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest disparaissant Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Some of the medical predictions aren't terribly wrong, they're just a tad optimistic. Like curing cancer with a virus delivered vaccine, isn't that currently on the bleeding edge of medical research? Anyways, interesting stuff.

Guest joshier Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 It's useful to take these predictions and place it on our own predictions for more accurate predictioning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
