I particularly like #4. And iago, theres a Pratchett reference in there, but I can't remember which one. And deadly, the referenced H2G2G, too.

Yeah, too bad it's not a Discworld book, though. 

But yup, in Dark Side of the Sun they used a singularity in a box to assassinate (or attempt to.. I forget) somebody.  I don't think that really makes sense but eh?


<edit> By the way, he kind of missed the most important and scary one: nanotechnology.  #2 sort of alludes to it, but he doesn't even mention nanotechnology.  Anyways, read up on that in the Wikipedia article called Grey Goo.  Grey Goo scares me.
