R. A. Heinlein shoots and scores again, from beyond the grave...

(His reputation as a prognosticator is overblown, of course; I saw an analysis recently of one of his famous lists of predictions - non-fiction, mind you - which suggested his accuracy was actually rather low. Still, it's fun to see this sort of thing.)

[Sound of telephone ringing]
"Hello?"
"Professor ____?"
"Yes."
"Are you going to be in your office in about ten minutes? I have some questions about Differential Equations."
"No, I'm afraid not. We could talk about it over the phone, or you could e-mail me."
"Mm, I don't have my book with me. Will you be there later in the afternoon?"
"No, I wasn't planning on coming in today."
(pause) "Did I call you at home?"
"Yeah."
"I'm sorry. I thought I called you at your office. Okay, I'll see you tomorrow."
