Predictions about 2000 in 1900

[FabianN]

Saw this and it was really interesting.
It's a list of predictions done in 1900 about what we will have by the year 2000, or within that century.
And it's quite amazing how many things are true, or we are really, really close to being true.

Prediction #27: Few drugs will be swallowed or taken into the stomach unless needed for the direct treatment of that organ itself. Drugs needed by the lungs, for instance, will be applied directly to those organs through the skin and flesh. They will be carried with the electric current applied without pain to the outside skin of the body. Microscopes will lay bare the vital organs, through the living flesh, of men and animals. The living body will to all medical purposes be transparent. Not only will it be possible for a physician to actually see a living, throbbing heart inside the chest, but he will be able to magnify and photograph any part of it. This work will be done with rays of invisible light.

We wish =/
