What awaits us in our future? In the year 2108?

What awaits us in our Future? 100 years from now? “Anything, everything is possible.” Thomas Edison, 1908 A year ago I subscribed to the Smithsonian Magazine. I was tired of subscribing to a bunch of magazines that would only hold a few articles of which I was truly interested in reading, or that talked about things I enjoy learning and reading about. I’m one of those people that need to constantly stimulate my brain, or I will go crazy. Which is when I decided to subscribe to the Smithsonian. I’ve been much to busy to read the magazines up until recently. So I only just started reading my January 2008 Volume 32 #10 edition. Page 42 starts a very intriguing article by Jim Rasenberger titled, 1908*. In that article, Jim discusses the things that have happened in 1908, as well as very accurate predictions that the people of that time had made. I will include parts of the article in this write, as I go along, word for word of course (all credit for the parts I include go to Jim Rasenberge
