To infinite... and beyond!

Whilst trying to research on the 2020 brief, I came accross this crazy website. Its called "News Of The Future" and it basically predicts what the future will be like from 2020 and beyond.
Some of the stories are absolute madness. Non of the stories are bound to be anywhere near accurate, although with headlines such like "US Medicare Costs Now 7.5% of GDP" and "Senior Drivers Account for 25% of US Driver Fatalities" it just kind of proves my speculation about how nothing at all will have dramatically changed in 2020. Of course theres the usual stories like "First Tourist Heading for Mars" and "Beam Yourself Around the World with Telebeamer", but for how long have people been saying that? I'm sure once over, by the year 2000 we where meant to be floating around in bubble cars or something...

Anyway if anyone wants to have a read of some of these stories then the website is http://www.newsoffuture.com/ (I tried to link it but it wouldn't work!)
There might actually be some pretty interesting stuff on there (hmm), I think i might read around a bit more, but if its anything like i've already read its pretty humourous reading.
