    Thought this short quote from a Scientific American article might ruffle a few feathers. I cite the author and issue.

    "But what about specific products? Is there any way to predict what we'll be carrying in our pockets in 2020? Can anyone see the next iPhone, iPad or Wii?

    Probably not. If they could, electronics companies wouldn't release flopperoos like Microsoft Zune, the BlackBerry PlayBook and the Indium satellite phone."

    Hard to give any credibility or respect to anyone who prints the word "flopperoos".

    Just an addendum, the name of the article was: "The Future Is for Fools"

    Just looked the autor up, he has written more "Icrap" than a proctotometrist!!
