Interesting things predicted by Asimov have come to pass in this year. Not all, and that is a good thing. Although the binary mathematics I think should be on high school curriculums. A fun read.

    He also alludes to the probabilty/statistical, affective/effective, reactions of an unaware population to "stimuli" in
    the Foundation Series.

    Although with less specificity in some areas, the Bible prophesies where man is going and with perfect accuracy.

    He had an amazing mind. According to writer Robert Asprin he was a dirty old man though.I met Asprin back in the mid 80's, he told me and a few other friends a few wild stories about Asimov and Stephen King.

    Hey, when I was in High-school I was already pretty proficient with binary math.. I was spending a lot of time back them programming my crapple //e which meant a lot of time writing in assembly. At the University I took assembly my second semester of CS. It was glorious, but going into it I thought everyone in class should have already been good at doing math in binary, along with logic.. Granted I also innocently thought that they were all also willing to think.
