1985 School Kids Predict Life In 2000

January 12, 1985, KNOT-TV, Minot, ND - At the time, the year 2000 was 15 years away - it might as well have been the far distant future for 2nd and 3rd graders at Perkett Elementary School in Minot. I asked them to draw pictures showing what life might be like in 2000 and wite a little about what they hope to be doing then. The result was a fun, entertaining feature story. It's just as fun to watch today, a decade beyond 2000, comparing the predictions with reality. Transferred from 3/4 inch videotape via ADVC 300 and into iMovie HD.
