In 1983, I was teaching Spanish to middle schoolers at a private school that was part of Nova University in Fort Lauderdale. Spanish wasn\u2019t their favorite subject, so I told my 8th graders that if they studied Spanish four days a week, then every Friday we would study \u201canomalies\u201d and do psychic experiments. They loved it!<\/p>\n
On March 14, 1983, I asked them to write down their predictions for 25 years in the future – i.e., for 2008. It had to include a prediction about themselves. Rob ran across a folder today with all their predictions inside.<\/p>\n
There are a number of precognitions in these predictions:\u00a0 school at home with\u00a0 TV so you and the teacher can see each other; phones with TVs so you can see the person you’re talking to; we’ll be closer to the truth about UFOs. You’ll also spot the stuff that hasn’t happened yet.<\/p>\n
