In the year 2000, everyone would have their own personal dirigible.
Check out these neat postcards from the German chocolate company Hildebrand, circa 1900. They depict predictions of the future - the year 2000 to be exact. Some are bang-on, while others are quite laughable. All in all, a delightful collection.

Awsome post card Miss P. If you see this comment remind me to show you a rare book i have by Rudyard Kipling upon your visit. It is titled the Night Mail, 1905. Gold embossed balloon cover. It is the ONLY science fiction written by Kipling. Ricky

A dark chocolate dirigible would also be delightful.
