I feel sorry for you that you are spending so much time working on this.

It is impossible.
I see you have listed all the upcoming dates and predicted events. So begins the clutching at the straws.
You know, nobody got to fly before the 1900s, but one day a man got to fly with a airplane...
Predicting the future is a skill, history DOES repeates.
I'm strongly convinced about Timewave Zero.
In a week, or by August 2010 all opinion about my theories will reach a turning point. I think it will be succesful.
Timewave Zero is the ultimate predictive device. Impossible is not a word for it.
And plenty of people did predict the future...
Do you think we will leave in peace and richness until 2100???
No, it all changes this November, my friend.
So, get ready for it.

You see, you can predict the future, people have done it since there were people, prediction is the purpose of imagination, it allows us to assess what is ahead for us in the world and as such is a survival skill.
We learn to predict by looking at the past.
As we evolve we get better and better, more precise, at predicting the future. Zagari is reinforcing our evolutionary purpose, may be wrong, may be right, but more precise predictions of what the universe holds is the difference between us stagnating or becoming more than we are already.
Impossible indeed, lol.

So you are saying that the ability to predict the future is to look at past events and pick those with the higher odds or likelihood of continuing? Saying a plane will fly tomorrow or that an earthquake will happen in CA is pretty much playing good odds that what has happen will continue.

Well if your having fun with this , enjoy it.
After November don't be too disappointed. Its OK if nothing happens.
Just remember you will have learned a great lesson.
I will not be jumping up and down saying I told you so, I just want you to realise you cannot predict the future. You are very young. When you are here another couple of decades you will realise there is nothing you can predict.
EMBRACE UNCERTAINTY
(I'm also sure that after November or after December or even next year somebody somewhere will come up with an excuse why it didn't happen and why the dates where wrong and if we do this the dates where actaully 12 months out.)

Mr Seagull, it seems your mind is already made up. You will not accept things which do not match your theory, whether they are right or wrong. Being closed to learning is not a desirable position.
