By the way, _predicting_ is about associating probabilities with possibilities, which, unfortunately, is a subjective act. My impression of Hardt and Negri is that they associate the probability of one to the possibility of "imperialism turning into ultra-imperialism". Tell me that my impression is wrong but then it is my impression.
Only God, possibly other than our paranoid-schizophrenic Nash, can dare to assign a probability of one to a possibility. And I don't think even Nash is as paranoid-schizophrenic as that, nor God. Sabri
