OK, so the Good Times (Santa Cruz weekly entertainment paper) doesn't
exactly compete with the supermarket tabloids, but anyway the cover
of the latest issue features the article in which local astrologer
Risa D'Angeles gives her predictions for 1993.
First she leaves herself a big loophole by prefixing the list with
"The following changes will begin to take shape in the new year:"
so if what's predicted doesn't happen, well, maybe it will next year.
Then most of the items are the sort of generalities that are obvious
or not clearly true nor false. Such as, "Banks, insurance companies,
stocks and investors will go through a reorganization process, and
for some, a crisis. Along with management and businesses, if the
needs and creativity of the people are not served, these institutions
and levels of authority will fail."
Now, here's one that seems more definitely testable. "We will begin to
use cold fusion (another form of nuclear energy using a single isotope
of water) to supply our energy needs."
