Interesting things predicted by Asimov have come to pass in this year. Not all, and that is a good thing. Although the binary mathematics I think should be on high school curriculums. A fun read.

    Hey, when I was in High-school I was already pretty proficient with binary math.. I was spending a lot of time back them programming my crapple //e which meant a lot of time writing in assembly. At the University I took assembly my second semester of CS. It was glorious, but going into it I thought everyone in class should have already been good at doing math in binary, along with logic.. Granted I also innocently thought that they were all also willing to think.

    He had an amazing mind. According to writer Robert Asprin he was a dirty old man though.I met Asprin back in the mid 80's, he told me and a few other friends a few wild stories about Asimov and Stephen King.

    Although with less specificity in some areas, the Bible prophesies where man is going and with perfect accuracy.
