It was very difficult for me to find anything specific to the date of July 14, 1942 that would qualify as novel, in my narrow opinion that had little to do with WWII. Apparently it was a pretty big deal and policies and news of that period reflected the increasing resources and manpower devoted to defeating the Nazi war machine.
On July 14, 1942, the Indian National Congress passed a resolution demanding complete independence from the British government. The draft proposed that if the British did not accede to the demands, massive civil disobedience would be launched.

Good thread

I don't know how relevant this is bu according to Wikipedia:
Resolution for immediate independence
On July 14, 1942, the Indian National Congress passed a resolution demanding complete independence from the British government. The draft proposed that if the British did not accede to the demands, massive civil disobedience would be launched.
Just throwing stuff out there, don't beat me up.

Well the Timewave Zero graph didn't correlate at all to what happened on 9-11. So there is proof that it is somewhat bogus.
the Kelly version is the original set used by Terrence Mckenna it was created by Royce Kelley and Leon Taylor in 1974 as McKenna was developing the theory
the Watkins version is based on a criticism of Novelty theory by Matthew Watkins in which he designed a formula capturing the I-Ching transformation.
the Sheliak version is based on a revision from physicist John Sheliak, this version is the one which McKenna himself was the most mathematically sound
In addition to the King Wen sequence the Huang-Ti sequence and Ben Franklin’s magic square have also been converted into novelty number sets.

Hmm.
I've always found that strange as well. However, I don't think that it necessarily means that the TWZ program is bogus. the fact that 9/11 didn't happen in a novelty peak is not a good reason to discredit the system entirely. Events happen in and out of novelty all of the time.

I'm not sure I understand about this timewave. It's supposed to show us when certain *novel* events take place?
If that's the case, then maybe what happened in July of 1942 was novel, but not newsworthy; not something that entered the consciousness of Mankind. For example, someone discovered something, but that discovery didn't bear fruit for some time afterwards.
Just to take an example, the idea of nuclear fission used as a weapon must have occurred to someone long before it ever took place. So, that might be where the "novelty" began, even though the actual use of fission as a weapon only took place in August of 1945.
I suppose that October 26, 2009 might have some sort of newsworthy event. Perhaps Iran will test a nuclear weapon. Perhaps their nuclear sites will be attacked. Maybe it's something completely unrelated to any known news items of today. The problem I see is, there are newsworthy events on many days. How will we determine whether October 26th is just a busy news day, or whether something truly unique and noteworthy happened? What would distinguish ordinary news from something special? In fact, what does "special" mean, when considering the timewave?
I think, given this understanding (which I admit might be wrong), I wouldn't consider something about Iran as "special". We can see something in the works already. I would say that it would have to be something unexpected, something that a person wouldn't ordinarily see coming. Example: China wants to become the 51st US state. That's so bizarre, that if it happened on 10/26, I'd say timewave rocks.
Whatever the case, I think it would be important to determine now what would constitute a "novel" event, rather than seeing what happens then and trying to retrofit it into the "prediction".
I recall that the web-bot was supposedly predicting an earthquake for a certain date. The earthquake never happened, but the Madoff debacle happened. This was considered a "hit". But seriously, that's lame. Any day is likely to have news; you can fit anything into a "prediction" after the fact.
