1. Some more Celente predictions...

"Somewhere around the year 2000, the revelation--and revolution--will come. The lawn! Lawns are everywhere: millions of costly, intensively cared for suburban lawns have been doing nothing but growing grass. But a lawn that's turned into a vegetable patch can produce fresh food."


"The videophone, meanwhile, will keep us in touch with faraway relatives. Today when we use the phone, we are still communicating by radio. With the addition of the videophone's visual dimension, long-distance communication will be more like television."


"The return of individuality will spell an end to the multibillion-dollar fashion industry The bulk of day-to-day apparel will consist of durable mass-produced casual wear. Where appearance matters, the combination of computerization and declining wages will bring custom tailoring back to an affordable price range. The result--personally designed "smartwear"--will bridge the gap between casual and formal: appearance-enhancing but comfortable."

All predictions made for the 2000s just 3 years before them. This mountebank's reputation is built on generalist nonsense with no more insight, or need for it, than a cheap psychic's cold readings about knowing people whose name began with J who worried about their health some times. Whenever he tries to actually get specific he's about as accurate as a Magic 8 Ball.
