Sometime in the early 18th century Senor Suyog Bhise lived in some remote place of India. He imagined about people flying, travelling faster than a bullock/horse cart, talking to each other over great distances, etc! Mostly he was dismissed as a nerd and the joke got around about his insanity. Over the period most people died out of disease, old age and sufferings. Senor Suyog died because of curiosity. After many ganpati immersions, firecrackers, holi celebrations, etc some Wright brothers developed an airplane, some geeks developed the computer, some mavericks developed the motor car and some fools the whole mobile technology; so that greater fools could spend the better part of their life talking. But now that I'm back...I have another prediction-stuff of dreams again. People will be transported instantaneously from one place to another through space. In a seconds interval one could be travelling from earth to Jupiter or beyond.This is called teleportation. Recently a gentleman called Eugene Polzik managed to teleport light, matter from one spot to another in a split second. Hopefully this time, in my generation, I would be alive to see real people being traported.
