Could you read the article yourself please? Because although Fox has decided on the catchy headline PEOPLE CAN SEE THE FUTURE, nowhere at all in the article do the scientists claim that is remotely true. They are talking about visual processing in the visual cortex and how it extrapolates ten microseconds into the future to make up for the signal delay.

I read the article yesterday. The purpose of the title (as I'm sure you know) is to catch viewer's attention. While there's no talk of man receiving vivid luminous visions thousands of years into the future...it does center around man "perceiving" the future, by an eighth of a second courtesy of the visual cortex, therefore the article is quite relevant. How you failed to see that connection is beyond me.
