No such things as predictions

No matter how SMART you are, please do not make any predictions about the future. Because we just can't know what's gonna happen........Proven below. My top 10 bad predictions
«Everything that can be invented has been invented.» Charles H. Duell, an official at the US patent office, 1899. «Democracy will be dead by 1950.» John Langdon-Davies, A Short History of The Future, 1936.
«Read my lips: NO NEW TAXES.» George Bush, 1988.
«Who the hell wants to hear actors talk?» H. M. Warner, co-founder of Warner Brothers, 1927
«Man will not fly for 50 years.» Wilbur Wright, American aviation pioneer, to brother Orville, after a disappointing flying experiment, 1901 (their first successful flight was in 1903).
«I am tired of all this sort of thing called science here... We have spent millions in that sort of thing for the last few years, and it is time it should be stopped.» Simon Cameron, U.S. Senator, on the Smithsonian Institute, 1901.
«There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home.» Ken Olson, president, chairman and founder of Digital Equipment Corp. (DEC), maker of big business mainframe computers, arguing against the PC in 1977.
Such startling announcements as these should be deprecated as being unworthy of science and mischievous to its true progress.» Sir William Siemens, on Edison's light bulb, 1880
«A rocket will never be able to leave the Earth's atmosphere.» New York Times, 1936.
«There is not the slightest indication that nuclear energy will ever be obtainable. It would mean that the atom would have to be shattered at will.» Albert Einstein, 1932.
See, no one can predict the future, so keep your finger crossed....
