The world is full of surprises

New things happen all the time that have never happened before. A world where Innovation and change is the lifeblood of progress, it is nearly impossible to forecast future conditions based on historic events. You can now achieve even those things, that once was believed to be a waste of thought.
Not that we should use past surprises as a guide to future boundaries ,that we should use past surprises as an admission that we have no idea what might happen next.
History is a study of change, study of human behaviour. Not a map of future.
