This I have copied out of one of my huge books..so there isnt a link to give Im afraid. I have just found this, in 1898 Morgan Robertson published a noval about pride, greed and stupidity. It was called "The Wreck of the Titan, or Futility" and it described the maiden voyage of a transatlantic luxury liner named Titan. Although reputedly unsinkable, the Titan strikes an iceberg and sinks, with enormous loss of life. In 1912 the Titanic, a transatlantic luxury liner widely touted as unsinkable, made her maiden voyage. She struck an iceberg and sank, with enormous loss of life. The following similarities pertained, "On Tuesday, April 16, 1912, The New York Times announced that the sinking of the Titanic. The disaster was strangley similar to a fictional tragady published in 1898" Was he given a flash what was the future? i dont think so, but you can make your own minds up
