Speaking of science-fiction, isn't it weird how when you look back at what was sci-fi back in the 50's and 60's and 70's has partly come true? I honestly think sci-fi is more of a way that we create our future than I think should be happening. Who knows, maybe back then they were psychics and didn't know it, but I highly doubt that!
Science fiction isn't about predicting anything. Its set in 'a' future not 'the' future.
