01/02/2004 Archived Entry: "Predictions for 2004"
In what hopefully will be an annual tradition...my predictions for the year to come:
- Osama bin Laden will not be captured alive. I think it's unlikely that he will be captured at all. If he IS found, he will be dead, and it will be just before the next election
- No terrorist attacks in the 50 states in 2004
- A bright new communications technology will appear that will supplant instant messaging completely within 3 years after its release
- Finally, a drop in the number of new AIDS cases in Africa
- Bush to win a very, very close election in the US against Howard Dean
- More voting irregularities appear as the result of the above
- Computer servants make a rise (software on your computer that helps you with common tasks intelligently and with some ability to learn...Clippy is reborn with a brain!)
- Much more public debate on the possibility that the environmentalist are wrong about global warming, leading to a more protests as leaders pull back from items like the Kyoto Protocol
