< yesterday -- tomorrow >

At the end of the nineteenth century, H.G. Wells predicted the course of the twentieth. He was pretty much correct up through the time of his death in 1946, but since then his prediction has gone wrong.

Parapsychologists could ask no surer proof of mass mind control.

clue:

H.G. Wells wrote The War of the Worlds and other science fiction, so he was in a pretty good situation to predict.

take oh take this clue away
