William Shakespeare, in his play The Merry Wives of Windsor, predicted Internet discussion after the Endless September:

"Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning."â Winston Churchill, coming back from a time travel expedition from the future where he saw The Fellowship of the Ring.
