THE SCORECARD
Madam Futura predicted "a terrible tragedy causing the deaths of thousands on Sept. 10."
WRONG. Nothing of the kind happened on that date.

CORRECT. When Live With Regis and Kathie Lee became Live With Regis and Kelly everything changed.
Cassandra predicted "the invention of a low-priced anti-aging cream that will be sold on the Internet exclusively by the inventor."
CORRECT. Amazingly, Cassandra herself invented just such a miracle emollient and marketed it on the Internet.

CORRECT. A new and improved version of the pogo stick went on sale.
Gupta predicted "the use of the mail system to send letters laced with a deadly form of anthrax to leading politicians and media figures."
WRONG. Had Gupta submitted his prediction on time, this one would have been correct, but rules are rules.
