Prediction Eleven: Within the next fifty or one hundred years, physical books will be declared to be a significant health hazard, and owning them will be strongly discouraged. TSIAH! TSIAH! (Probably there will also be an effort to do away with most physical paperwork as well; a virtual memory hole is much easier to implement than a physical one.)

Instead, we’ll be encouraged to read everything on our little e-readers; a few companies like Google will electronically archive all of the world’s libraries for us. And if the content of a book seems a little different than the last time you read it, well, it’s all in your head.
