Harlan Ellison was a prophet. Some of his stories were identical to events that have recently gone on that would have been impossible to predict because they were impossible.
- Harlan wrote a story about a man who was able to target and destroy military weapons and people would send him the locations of these secret sites and he would destroy them.
- Another story told of a man who could grant wishes for people. He held a meeting and people shouted out what they wanted including breast and penis enlargement (not on the same people).
