These are clearly misinterpretations.

I still have the running list of predictions (years) when a 1 sustained
TFLOPS machine will exist.  1995 seems to be a common theme, but this
will be over taken by the fact that it will be a peak rather than systained
rate.  The triumpth of politics and marketing hype over technology.
So in 1995 I expect some one to declare victory when the reality isn't true.
