It's true, I admit.

You are 57% geek

You are a geek. Good for you! Considering the endless complexity of the universe, as well as whatever discipline you happen to be most interested in, you'll never be bored as long as you have a good book store, a net connection, and thousands of dollars worth of expensive equipment. Assuming you're a technical geek, you'll be able to afford it, too. If you're not a technical geek, you're geek enough to mate with a technical geek and thereby get the needed dough. Dating tip: Don't date a geek of the same persuasion as you. You'll constantly try to out-geek the other.

(Note that as of 1976 comic book writers still knew the difference between cardinal and ordinal numbers)

Things have not exactly progressed as planned, eh? Other predictions in this comic that were way off base:

• A female American president in 1990 (presumably elected in1988)
• A stong, threatening Soviet Union in 1990, including an attempted nuclear war (foiled by Supes, bien sur).
• Video phones in 1990
• 3-d TV in 2001
• The eastern seaboard merging in to one megalopolis (named, naturally, "Metropolis") in 2000.
• An evil thrid-world power orchestrating the fall of the U.S. and terrorizing New York... oh... wait a minute...!
