No harm intended. I was just amazed at finding a whole bunch of people who took this
stuff seriously. I will put on a pair of fucshia colored 3D glasses and give Nostie another
look.


My! My! How very condescending of you, eh? Coming wearing fuschia-colored glasses indeed! Ya right, so many folks take this stuff seriously. IMHO, there are at least 5 reasons:-

1. Lots of folks (you know, it takes all sorts to make the world) are concerned because we are very near the end of this millennium and 'Nosty' 'seemed' to have had an uncanny track record, and also most recently, one Sollog guy has been chalking up a significant number of spot-on hits! (FWIW to you, read his stuff at whatshotin.com);

2. There are researchers in psychology and social studies who are posting to gather info/data. In a sense, they are infiltrators who are doing some research;

***3*** There are those who are compulsive proselytizers (soul savers)--- the Nostradamus and Sollog bashers, Bible-thumpers etc;

4. There are those who apparently have to have a daily or occasional fix of gloom-and-doom, tragedy-and-catastrophe, and hellfire-to-the-infidels stuff;

5. And those, like me, who manifest a compulsive urge to share/show-off their knowledge, FWIW to others, and to debate. (Someone seems to have given me the title of 'Mr. Satan' because of what I have been posting lately).
