The futures we thought would be

[roseembolism]

In 1987 a group of science fiction writers put their predictions for the future in a time capsule, to be opened 25 years later.

This is what they wrote.

I wish we'd ended up with Fred Pohl's future, Silverberg was clever and thus correct (if also usefully vague), Dave Wolverton seems like a complete tool from what I've read by and about him, but the first half of his prediction was the most accurate of any of them, and Zelazny's was well more than half correct, but the last two sentences made me sad.
