Just came across this list of predictions from 1950 as to how we'll live in 2000.

For some reason they thought we'd have WWIII by now, but we'd all still live in a uber-awesome flying car world where people work 20 hours (fixed by law) and 3D TV.

Well they were right about this-- losing our freedoms for security

- Some see us drifting toward the all-powerful state, lulled by the sweet sound of “security.” Some see a need to curb our freedom lest it be used to shield those who plot against us. And some fear our freedom will be hard to save if a general war should come

haha.. They were right about wireless phones too.. and their insinuation of a woman president is close here in 2008.
