Someone who senses what's coming next. Someone who can project into the future a viable, sensible reality, and who is enthusiastic about the possibilities.
My son, Benny, is becoming a futurist, and that makes me happy. His overview is wise and practical, and he's in love with what can be.

Apr 27 Word of the Day
A horoscope so bad that it strikes fear into the heart of the reader, rendering them unable take action or make a decision on anything or to even leave the house. This is caused by a paralyzing fear that those actions or decisions may cause the predictions to come true.
After reading "There is a lot of uncertainty around financial transactions and investments right now, and the wrong decision could result in dire consequences" in his daily Horrorscope, Edward climbed back into bed, pulled the sheets over his head and remained there for the rest of the day.
Edward only had enough gas in his car to get to the gas station but was not sure if he had enough money in his account to pay for gas. His cell phone service had been cut off because his payments were in arrears, and since the only way he could be sure he had enough money (to pay for gas) would be to call the bank, he felt it best to hide in bed and hope his horoscope for tomorrow was more positive.

well what i think it is a person who thinks of what could be and how it is built and what is the reaction of that item and how it could effect the people and the earth and what are the steps to build that item from now to there
a futurist will think maby of space craft of how they would be in the future and he might think of what if u make the metal with certain magnetic properties to allow it to move around in earth magnetically field and a ion pusher thing to move it around and some kinda engine pulses of high blast of energy to push even faster in space and with metal will be sensitive to the sun for more energy and he will think of steps to first think of how to research it and how it could benefit the earth with such a device
