A prediction of the future from 1964 (4)

Did a pretty good job if you ask me. Everyone quotes cryptic writings from Nostradamus and the book of revelations that can mean anything if you twist the words right. This guy did a pretty good job if you ask me. No crazy BS of the world ending, no flying cars or atomic bombs.

Arthur C Clark was one of the drivers of communications technology. Infact he did the original mathematics to work out the positioning of satellites for geo-stationary orbits. So what he is presenting as a prediction was actually back in the 60s, an engineering target. It's easy to make predictions if you're involved in the decision making process!conversing
