[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Murphy Siding [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by futuremodal Well, it comes down to whose predictions you put faith in. If you believed in the theories of the population bomb, if you believed back in the late 70's that if Ronald Reagan got elected there would be a nuclear war before his first term was up, if you believed that disco was here to stay and that rock and roll was dead, well you'd have been wrong. If however, you believed those who saw a brighter future for the U.S., if you believed those who said Soviet communism would be defeated, if you believed those who said that the Berlin wall would come down and the Germany's would be reunited, well then you would have been right. It all depends on the moral, spiritual, intellectual, and relative optimism of the predicter in question. Those who always see the glass half empty are usually less vindicated than those who see the glass half full.

[/quote] No, you misunderstand. What I am trying to point out is that those whose predictions tend toward optimism are right more often than those whose predictions tend toward pessimism.
