MY PREDICTIONS FOR THE FUTURE

“The FUTURE is already there - we just need to FEEL it.


In the FUTURE, our houses will FLY. Entire communities will HEAD SOUTH FOR THE WINTER or move to new locations for A CHANGE of scenery.

Work will be OBSOLETE. Computers or robots will COMPLETE most daily tasks.

A process through which TEXTS AND ILLUSTRATIONS will be photographed and reproduced will replace the typesetter.

Cities will be CONSTRUCTED deep beneath the ocean AND dot the moon.

Novels will be TRANSFORMED into a new kind of entertainment. Instead of employing real actors, as in a play, voices and visual images will be PROJECTED onto a stage, creating the illusion of reality.

A man-made SPACE RING will encircle the Earth above the equator. People will go up to the ring and ride in it while the Earth rotates beneath them. When their destination comes into view below, they will DESCEND.

All citizens will have their EVERY MOVE WATCHED by electronic devices that can’t be turned off.

UFOs from the center of the sun will ATTACK THE EARTH and enslave mankind.

Electricity and/or other POWER sources will REPLACE steam energy.

People will live beneath domes that will provide TEMPERATURE-CONTROLLED ENVIRONMENTS and will filter harmful substances out of the air.

Buildings will stand HUNDREDS OF FEET tall.

PEOPLE will wear thin rayon underwear that CHEMICAL FACTORIES will buy to convert into candy.

The federal government will REFOREST ALL WASTE AREAS and the headwaters of all major rivers. Anyone who CUTS DOWN A TREE will be legally responsible for planting another one in its place. We will also have a national policy for flood and pest control and for irrigation.

Strawberries AS LARGE AS APPLES will be eaten by our great great grandchildren.”

“All citizens will have their EVERY MOVE WATCHED by electronic devices that can’t be turned off.
