Iso, regarding Nostradamus.. excerpt from: home.xnet.com Was Nostradamus a prophet? No. His supporters are very good at predicting events after the fact, often relying on doubtful translations of the original French to bolster their case. But they have had absolutely no success at predicting the future. Up until a few years ago most Nostradamus books were predicting a nuclear war between America and the USSR. None of them predicted the breakup of the Soviet block. Nostradamus was a Protestant in a time and place when the Inquisition was torturing and burning heretics. To avoid their attention, Nostradamus couched his political letters to other Protestants in obscure symbolism. It is these writings that are now being reinterpreted as prophecy, despite straightforward interpretations which link them to the time Nostradamus wrote them. If you try hard enough, you can find connections between the symbols and numbers used by Nostradamus and almost anything else, particularly if you allow multi-lingual puns and rhymes. A good general reference on Nostradamus is: The Mask of Nostradamus James Randi Charles Scribner's Sons ISBN 0-684-19056-7 BF1815.N8R35 1990 ----------------------- Regarding Russia, i think we've already made agreements with them. They're afraid of oil going so low that it ruins their economy like it nearly did before. We've probably already assured them that we won't let it go that low or at least they'll get economic help if it does. Russia has thrown its lot with the west for better or worse. Sure it will still try to keep some alliances if they're to Russia's advantage. Iraq is one of them. However, Russia will ultimately side with the west. Right now it is politically impossible to openly admit these things. Both Russia and the USA would obviously deny that any of these 'pacts' were made. China hates us but is too scared of us to do anything but grumble, i think. i see conspiracies everywhere.. :)
