The Year 2011 According to Thomas Edison in 1911

io9 just published one of Edison's articles written in 1911.  More famously known for inventing the 1st commercially viable light bulb and his vicious feud with NikolaTesla, the venerable inventor published a list of predictions for the year 2011.

By 2011, we shall all...

1) Travel through the air at 200 miles per hour!

2) Drive cars and rid in taxi cabs made of gold.

3) Sail on cruise ships made of gold.

4) Live in houses made completely of steel.

5) Rock our babies in steel cradles, use steel furniture all throughout.

6) Read books with pages made out of nickel leaves.

7) Learn to transmute iron into gold.

Personally, I like the work of Nikola Tesla far better. He accurately predicted cellphones over 100 years ago.
