Who shall I be???
I'll be Topcat 1500. I recently lost my best-est buddy Astro on Pluto. Astro is a dog. He caught canine space herpes.
Come on people!
OP: I read the post you made while I was posting. Anything major happens in the next 5 days, I'll be surprised... I may even eat my hat.edit on 30-8-2011 by butcherguy because: (no reason given)

Edit to add: That first thread should have been moved to [HOAX] while there was still time!edit on 30-8-2011 by DJW001 because: (no reason given)

Common sense tells us you should believe everything and everyone just in case it's true.
This gem of a statement perfectly sums up how ridiculous threads like this gain so much popularity on ATS, at last finally someone is honest about the thought process that now drives this forum. Now we can all see the incredible critical thinking that goes into believing in random nameless dudes on forums making claims, predictions and grand stories with ZERO evidence to back it up.
What ATS and the human race has become is so beautifully explained by this one statement, it all makes sense now. But now we're doomed, Paul McCartney has just revealed mankind's dirty secret and brought the whole house of cards crashing down. The end of ATS is here folks, surely it will soon implode now that the hidden engine of crazy that's been driving this train along has been revealed in the open. Screenshot and save all the info you can before it's too late, this trains about to blow! And you better believe me and do what I say, just in case I'm right.edit on 31-8-2011 by darkest4 because: (no reason given)

Seems like it's more likely the world will end than I will find a job in my career field.
Couldn't agree more...!!
Hell, I'd actually sell out my species for a good career in my chosen field...

You see that's the issue with these predictions of sudden amazing openness, it can't happen unless it's forced upon TPTB, there's no way they will willingly announce the powers that they may have unless someone BIGGER forced them into it.
Are we ever going to know the truth 100%............I doubt it very much......Its just another prediction that will come and go in 4 days and 40 pages time.edit on 31-8-2011 by Mclaneinc because: (no reason given)

The whole thing reminds me of the movie "Deep Impact". Maybe they blasted Elenin from Jupiter somehow in a suicide mission. Not that I believe it, but anything is possible these days...edit on 31-8-2011 by HedyLamarr because: (no reason given)
I mean, is it that much to expect some special navy space pilot to know the basics of Jupiter.
Maybe our illustrious Naval Space Explorer(Super Secret, oops) watched the video too!

Wow! That is a pretty amazing video, and no one commented on it? Hmmmm, good post of this video, as it does directly relate to a couple characteristics of this story.....elenin and jupiter!

Bluecoat2- We've lost a team on Jupiter today. Two of them were close friends.
how exactly does one lose "a team ON Jupiter" when Jupiter is a gas giant and we aren't even sure it has a solid core, let alone know what it's made of.
Jupiter is composed primarily of gaseous and liquid matter.
....
Jupiter's upper atmosphere is composed of about 88–92% hydrogen and 8–12% helium by percent volume or fraction of gas molecules (see table to the right). Since a helium atom has about four times as much mass as a hydrogen atom, the composition changes when described as the proportion of mass contributed by different atoms. Thus the atmosphere is approximately 75% hydrogen and 24% helium by mass, with the remaining one percent of the mass consisting of other elements. The interior contains denser materials such that the distribution is roughly 71% hydrogen, 24% helium and 5% other elements by mass. The atmosphere contains trace amounts of methane, water vapor, ammonia, and silicon-based compounds. There are also traces of carbon, ethane, hydrogen sulfide, neon, oxygen, phosphine, and sulfur. The outermost layer of the atmosphere contains crystals of frozen ammonia.[15][16] Through infrared and ultraviolet measurements, trace amounts of benzene and other hydrocarbons have also been found

Now if he had of said "in" instead of "on" I'd still call him a BS artist.
P.S.
Do we really need a thread telling us this guy is going to say something in a week? Can't we wait til he says something? Or do we just need the fill the board with useless random crap to feel good about ourselves?

I am trying to refrain from commenting on these ridiculous threads because it is perfectly obvious that the hoaxer is reading them. I refuse to do any further research for this kid. He's improvised his way into a corner. The mods need to ask themselves why they are allowing so many threads cheering on a hoaxer that was banned from GLP.
