Predictions for 2058: Both interesting and clueless

Interesting piece here with predictions for the world of 2058. There are some interesting ones including some predictions by Vint Cerf of Google about a possible way to get up to the speed of light and skirt around that Einstein-imposed speed limit. The predictions are also pretty clueless because they don't talk at all about the demographic shifts that Mark Steyn chronicles in his book America Alone. Let's face it... those shifts are happening and unless there is some kind of Islamic Reformation, we're in for a REALLY rough ride. Then there's the completely idiotic stuff like the secretary of Interpol saying that international terrorism will be brought under control "because governments will realize counterterrorism is primarily a police function rather than a job for the military". Puh-leeze!
