I must confess that friend_of_tofu and I are a little skeptical about this article. Some of the predictions are too accurate, and some of the mistakes (like the business about housewives, and the 3-hour commute) so hilariously and predictably wrong, that they may have been put in for effect.
That, or it's a strikingly accurate but nevertheless cringe-inducingly typical piece of 60s futurology writing. If it is a fake, it's really well put-together.
