Over time, we see that what used to be known as Science Fiction later becomes Science Fact.
In the last few years, we keep seeing examples where mythological/folklore creatures are found to be true as well. (Anyone remember that Xandu-like "deer" they found a couple years ago that had been thought to be local folklore until they found a live one?)
And now, it appears that perhaps High Fantasy stories have a basis in reality as well... Hobbit-sized species of humans? This isn't just midgets or something -- from what they are saying, it is a completely different species that existed alongside with humans! They mention that it is the first known case of dwarfism. They were found in a limestone cave with tools and bones of prehistoric miniature elephants and giant lizards... Come on D&D fans -- let's start exploring!
We must become the change we want to see in the world. -- Mohandas Gandhi.
If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be. -- Thomas Jefferson
I do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success...
such emotions make a man forget food, sleep, friends, love, everything.
-- Nikola Tesla
