'Today’s weapon of choice for terrorists remains the
AK-47, the car bomb, and the rocket.

 

But terrorists looking for a bigger impact will increasingly turn to weapons of mass destruction and cyberterrorism.'

“Imagination About the Future Becomes A Science:
There’s a new university world & it’s occupied by futurists”
was the title of an article in the March 19, 1978
San Jose Mercury News. It began:

Looking into the future, which put food an the table for generations of fortune tellers, is becoming a profession for modern-day Ph.Ds.

Graduate students at the University of Minnesota are learning to forecast, not with crystal balls, hocus-pocus or tarot cards, but with statistics, imagination and a healthy dose of what one of them calls “good thinking.”

It is known as futures studies
or anticipatory science,
and its graduates will call themselves futurists!
