No one in their right mind would think three was do able.
They predicted all kinds of stuff, didn't they? I want to know where the heck
is my personal jetpack. Where's my helicopter car? Where's my robot that does
all the housecleaning for me? Where are the pills I can take that give me all
my nutrition for the day without needing to cook?
Notice, too, how much of the things that *did* happen, they never predicted:
cell phones, personal computers, GPS...
"They" are a bunch of dumbasses, and always have been.
