<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Atlanta-AP -- Billionaire Ted Turner isn't holding out much hope for the future -- saying he thinks humanity will be extinct within the next 50 years.
The founder of C-N-N and Turner Broadcasting told a seminar of journalists that weapons of mass destruction, disease and global warming are "scaring the living daylights" out of him. But, Turner points out that he may not be any good at making predictions. Twenty years ago he predicted that newspapers had about ten years left to live.
Turner stepped down as vice chairman of A-O-L Time Warner earlier this year and says he's happy he was pushed out by "those no-good weasels." Turner adds he now has more time for philanthropic projects.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>MY OPINION:He should team up with that other brilliantly enlightened soul, Barbara Streisand.
