Is it too simple to suggest SF is a storyline that includes what is possible given technological extrapolation; whilst fantasy encompasses the impossible or unlikely ?

I am sure that anything with "magic" powers is unlikely to be classed as SF - although having written that I wonder now about Star Wars! (with light sabres).
