 * Delete No use in lexicon = protologism. Bobby1011 14:50, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, declared as protologism, Google search "Futourism" gives only commercial or unrelated hits, no hits to indicate that the term has achieved any general use. Darn; I was hoping this would be about the old science-fiction idea of using time-travel machines to see what life will be like in the future.  Bad luck for Stefan Schutt:  WP:NOT a crystal ball of what terms will be encyclopedic on the day the term is coined.  Barno 20:48, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
