From this 1911 newspaper article that’s been going around the internet, with predictions of what the world would be like in 2011.
“The American will be Taller:by from one to two inches. His increase in stature will result from better health, due to vast reforms in medicine, sanitation, food and athletics. He will live fifty years instead of thirty-five as at present - for he will reside in the suburbs. The city house will practically be no more. Building in blocks will be illegal. The trip from suburban home to office will require a few minutes only. A penny will pay the fare.”
