“Prediction is very difficult, especially if it’s about the future,” quipped Nobel laureate Niels Bohr. The Danish physicist is best known as an early-20th Century pioneer of quantum theory.

The early 21st century has only made prediction harder. Each year has brought big news that few or none foresaw: 9/11, America’s longest war, a global financial crisis, the rise of Obama, the rise of Trump, COVID-19, fake meat, fake money, Jan. 6, inflation, Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, Ukraine’s cajones, factories returning to America from China.
