if you compare the 18th century with the ends of the 19th, and the 19th with the ends of the 20th, you see mindfucking progress and you expect it to happen again.
Oh, yes. But then again, it'd depend on whether you agree that most of our achievements in technology are because of scavenging alien crashed ships the wars we had last century. u.u

And yet, sci-fi keeps doing miscalculations.
Totally. Let me give you another example: Ghost In the Shell: Stand Alone Complex is supposed to happen in the year 2030, and most people there have a cyberbrain (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyberbrain).
The question being: how realistic is that we'd able to play that harsh with something so delicate so near in the future? The movie/TV series is still neat, though. ^^U
