By the year 2000, everybody will carry his little gaseous tablets, his little
ball of fatty matter.

Science Digest, 1967
POLITICS

-- Joseph Goebbels, Nazi propaganda
minister, 1941
ELVIS
By the year 2000, one out of three people will be Elvis impersonators.
-- Michael Sweet, The New York Times, 1991
HOUSEWORK
When the housewife of 2000 cleans house she simply turns the hose on everything. Why not? Furniture, rugs, draperies, unscratch- able floors - all are made of synthetic fabric or waterproof plastic. After the water has run down a drain in the middle of the floor, she turns on a blast of hot air and dries everything.
-- Waldemarr Kaempffert, Popular Mechanics, 1950

We may wake up each morning to the patter of little feet -- robot feet.

All the teacher will have to do to bring swift punishment will be to press a button and a current of electricity will shoot through the victim and make him think he is a human pin-cushion.
"Uncle Richard Tells of the Bad Boys of the Year 2000," The
Chicago Tribune, 1900
