Forecasting:

Three basic concepts that guide professional forecasters:  
  Is it technically feasible ? (can it be made) 
  Is it economically feasible ? (are costs prohibitive) 
  Is it socially and politically acceptable ? (will the
government permit the sale and will the consumer buy) (Cetron and
O'Toole, 1982)


  "Every successful politician , businessman, or human being of
any calling must make these estimates of the future and do it
fairly well or he or she would not be successful."
  "They do it without mathematics." 
  "True. They do it by intuition." (Asimov, 1988)
