Fascinating how they were right about food and how we store it and the concept of the ready-cooked meal. Also fascinating how they were completely wrong about war except for the concept of forts on wheels (M1A1 Abrams come to mind) and submarine warfare. Too bad we still have mosquitoes and rats, and physical fitness is going down, and I don't have a pneumatic tube going to the grocery store.

Right. It's one of the few misses. Perhaps it was just assumed as such and deemed too obvious to bother mentioning.

Technology predictions are a lot easier then cultural/political ones.

Think gay-marriage.
That would never have even crossed their minds.

I wonder why they thought of coal but not oil?

I wonder why they thought berries would be as big as apples?

They were coal-based and never thought about how much was left of something they didn't use. Who knows what we're going to run out of that we aren't utilizing yet?

As for berries being as big as apples, they are. If you compare a modern over-fertilized strawberry with old apple breeds there really isn't that much of a size difference.

A glimpse of what their concerns where. A lot of them, taken in our context, are spot on.

They were right about mankind (Americans) being taller....have you ever visited a museum highlighting the period clothes, homes and other neccessities? Back then, EVERYONE was so tiny!
anything after 'but' is bullshit!

If they say it's true, it probably isn't.
