Reminds me of this Futurama scene:

[Fry and Leela after Fry had an advertisement in his dream]

Leela: Didn't you have ads in the 21st century?"

Fry: Well sure, but not in our dreams. Only on TV and radio, and in magazines, and movies, and at ball games... and on buses and milk cartons and t-shirts, and bananas and written on the sky. But not in dreams, no siree.

If this technology gets refined, this might even be a reality in what, 50 years?

Or from the final episode of Firefly:

Jayne: Well, I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'.

Inara Serra: No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking.

Love it!

Seems it works for nearly all SM sites.

Small nitpick, it was the 20th Century, Fry got cryogenically frozen on the 31st December, 1999!

Even better: the XXI century doesn't really start until 2001, because both:

-Each century is 100 years long.

-There was no zero year - only the first.

Fry didn't get to see the XXI cemtury until spoiler alert.
