Thanks for those predictions. Futurology, whether extrapolating trends or trying to predict disruptions is pretty tricky. I've got a couple of old books from the 1920's which attempt to show what the future holds. Here are some of those images [scanned in and from AM LOW]:

It would seem that one can extrapolate rather well. Particularly well on the abundant communications, however as always - the flying car is out of reach.
