jenjen1352 rated 13 months ago- From the page: "By the year 2050, there will be at least 1 green autotrophic person on the Earth... " In time, we'll understand that killing animals for nutrition is no different than slavery or colonization. We'll be ashamed of our past. The next step of this will be to become autotrophic. We'll figure out that killing plants is also a sin! And as our technology allows it, we'll start injecting chlorophylles into our body and just like plants, we'll start producing our energy by ourselves and working with the solar power. This will allow us to stay alive without killing any living and this will be very cool! If no one does, be sure I will!!! Good grief! I'm not one for gambling, but I feel confident in saying that this will NEVER HAPPEN!!

- The internet will be just as intangible tomorrow as it is today, thus negating it's own existence and the accountability of any and all predictions on it..
Is what I was going to put on there until I realized there is a $50 fee for making a prediction.. maybe if it was going to be published in a book.. - The internet will be just as intangible tomorrow as it is today, thus negating it's own existence and the accountability of any and all predictions on it..

- This site may not be around by the time any of the predictions can actually be verified.

- From the page: "That by 2020 a wearable device will be available that will use voice recognition capability and high-volume storage to monitor and index conversations you have or conversations which occur in your vicinity for later searching as supplemental memory."

- A great site devoted to predictions of all sorts. You can wager bets against the predictors, as well as vote, leave comments, or even, make predictions of your own. :)
