<title>Predicting the Future</title>
<description>Encountered two eerie futuro-regressive predictions of sorts today: 1.

<title>inflation</title>
<description>Just titling this post &quot;inflation&quot; will keep people from reading it -- it&apos;s a boring word that brings to mind Alan Greenspan, or maybe tires. Thing is, inflation is a dangerous beast. It means that the value of the dollar...</description>
