    It's like that line in Steve Miller's "Take The Money And Run", where the detective "knows just exactly what the FAX is." The FAX machine was largely unknown until the early 1980s, but Miller managed to predict it's widespread popularity way back in 1976.

      Amazing. Just imagine what he could do with that forsight if he needed the money, but he doesn't since his greatest hits album sells over 100,000 copies every year.
