Fortune Quote #3518

To predict anything about the world a hundred years from now is simply
absurd.... Let's think back to people in 1900 in, say, New York. If they
worried about people in 2000, what would they worry about? Probably: Where
would people get enough horses? And what would they do about all the horse
shit? Horse pollution was bad in 1900; think how much worse it would be a
century later, with so many people riding horses. But of course, within a
few years, nobody rode horses except for sport. -- Michael Crichton
