As far as the government telling us about it, that would be like a pilot getting on the intercom to tell you that the airplane is about to crash and we are all going to die. What's the point if you can't change a thing. Enjoy your life as it comes, because you could get killed in a car accident tomorrow and Planet X wouldn't be able to greet you anyway.

Now that was funnny.

GrumpyMan, exactly. It's like the Klingon saying, "Enjoy today for tomorrow we all may die!". Wise those Klingons are. :)

I know this might mean some of you rotund people can't watch Dragon Ball Z anymore but try to at least consider that the world is changing and it's not for the better. If you don't believe this planet x thing has any signifigance then try to prepare for another terrorist attack at least. Extra food, survival gear, etc. Also, think how absurd the world has gotten... money, greed, loss of basic values, martha stewert (haha) and everything else that turns the human animal into the human consumer. I'm tired of being told what to buy and to use my visa card to buy it with. I want to feel human by living as one and not as a soft shell of what a human could be.

Stop dude, you're freaking me out. Can someone please comfort me? :frown:


No, he's right.
Bring on the cleansing fires, for the end is nigh!
(that is, if the gas utilities don't go bankrupt first...)

you sir are a moron. You wanna know the main reason that this is so full of crap. When you visit their website what is the first thing you see? An order form for a book. And if you continue to scroll you see more books. Now you tell me what the true agenda is here?

"Starting in 2000, three years prior to the cataclysms, a period of crop shortages will be so severe that alternative food production needs to be begun and practiced in earnest. This is when you should become practiced at self sufficiency."


Yeah, man, that crop shortage is just killing us all right now, isn't it?

A little OT - The movie When Worlds Collide would be an excellent movie to remake. :) With todays SFX it has the potential to be a great flick. No more of these comet/asteroid flics where it smashes into the Earth, instead a large planet-sized object just passes closeby enough to cause virtually total destruction. Because of the size of the invading object, defense (bombs, lasers, etc) aren't an option...only preparation is possible. Because no amount of effective defense is possible, near-complete destruction of Earth would be inevitable...making for some really farout SFX. Remember that comet/asteroid movie with Morgan Freeman as president? I remember seeing the previews for it with the destruction of major cities thinking "They wouldn't do that, must be like a dream sequence." I was a little surprised that it was actually part of the events. With WWC, I think the plot would have to be more on the line of preserving mankind and how that's possible instead of averting disaster...pretty much holding to the plot of the original.

Just no Arnold or Bruce, please. :)
