Fast Forward

What changes do you see in the new millennium?

I predict a cure for diseases such as AIDS and cancer. I see genetic engineering becoming widely available--but hopefully, not widely used.

Rosary High

Athletes will become better, and more rules and regulations will have to be enforced to ensure safer and more realistic games.

--Jeff Renevier, 18,

We will colonize the moon.

--Jeffrey Lewis, Capistrano Valley Christian High

I think we will see the first woman president, a cure for AIDS.

--Gloria Marshall, 17,

I’d love to see a female president (maybe me!).

Cornelia Connelly High

In politics, I could totally see people like Jerry Springer and old professional wrestlers who can’t wrestle anymore come into office.

Hulk Hogan will be president. Paper money will no longer exist; everyone will use plastic. People will start wearing overalls made from space-age materials. Cars will no longer be powered by gasoline alone; they will be hybrids--gas and electric.
