Interesting piece
here with
predictions for the world of 2058. There are some interesting ones
including some predictions by Vint Cerf of Google about a possible way
to get up to the speed of light and skirt around that Einstein-imposed
speed limit. The predictions are also pretty clueless because they
don't talk at all about the demographic shifts that
Mark Steyn chronicles in his book
America Alone.
Let's face it... those shifts are happening and unless there is some
kind of Islamic Reformation, we're in for a REALLY rough ride. Then
there's the completely idiotic stuff like the secretary of Interpol
saying that international terrorism will be brought under control
"because governments will realize counterterrorism is primarily a
police function rather than a job for the military". Puh-leeze!
