    You can’t say he wrote the book before 1999 and then ignore that products are announced before they are released too.

    You haven’t listed the 100 correct predictions from his 1999 book. I started with the 2009 predictions to give Kurzweil the best percentage possible. Longer predictions are less accurate.

      I’m not saying that.

      You’re making more incorrect assumptions.

        You said 100, now you claim you aren’t saying that.

        You are confused or a liar. This is beyond boring.

          You’re incorrect again.

          I said at least a hundred predictions on top of the 40 odd you want to talk about.

          You aren’t able to retain more than the most immediately recent comment.

          This is your own burden and nobody else’s.

            Stop lying. It’s boring.
            List your 100 with exact sources.

              I get it, you’re bummed you can’t convince anyone and you’ve lost the argument.

              I’m pretty happy about it, though, so I’ll leave you to do your own digging.

              You need to learn one day.

                You: "Pointedly ignoring his 100 predictions that came true "

                Me: list them.

                You: that’s not what I meant.

                Stop lying.

                  Ah, nagging up what I said because you’re bitter.

                  Satisfying.
