Did he say 'we are not Johnny come lately, we have been predicting this since 1980'? can I ask was he predicting the above in 1980 for 2012 just out of interest

Didn't I see him "predict" that 2009 civilisation would collapse in America and everyone would eat each other? Still waiting.....

He looks like some sort of magician or religious-priest sort in that black outfit and velvety rose scarf.

Some of these people warning of dangers ahead, with perhaps something useful to say, would come across better on the TV if they didn't dress like whackos.

Oh dear another doom and gloom numpty

This guy actually predict the future not just financial stuff.

Do people actually think these people are always correct or just prolific guessers who get linked to stuff they almost predicted (stopped clock and all that). What about all the stuff they don't predict correct?

Quick some one pass me my star signs because I must be exactly the same as everyone born around the same time as me.


Can we get Derek Acorah to do one and Sam.

lol. he reminds me of the sort of guy who used to approach girls at singles bars - all thick-rimmed specs and ruins of rome teeth- and use the chat up line 'I bet you're capricorn'.

sorry asheron. not one of your better posts.

Can you list those predictions ?

P.S. You do realise that we are in the U.K. don't you ?? All this conspiracy nonsense you post is dreamt up in the minds of lunatics who probably don't know that anywhere else exists other than the U.S.A.

2012? Feels to soon, accepting destabilising Black Swan events like an islamist dirty-bomb in a New York/London.

The plateau of peak oil will see a decade of oscillations in $$ price and panics before sustained decline in energy availability triggers global recession, collapse in the allocation system for oil/gas, lurching declines in food production, desperate waves of people fleeing desertification, ...

Resource wars will kick off in a big way, after twenty years the major powers will retreat back to isolation within their own continents and global famines will see population plummet and undershoot to 1.5B

There's an interesting film out – a monologue by the American Michael Ruppert called Collapse – on the subject of peak oil and the consequences of its decline. It's rational and mostly along the lines I've been thinking for quite some time.

Won't be a bad thing for the planet when the human population declines. (Until the industrial revolution the world population was more or less level; it grew massively from that point.) The remaining population will need to live off the local land, just as it did in pre-industrial times.

The severity of the effects of ever-increasing oil shortages on the human population will depend on whether it will occur in a gradual way, or very suddenly. Either way won't be comfortable, to say the least, but the former will obviously be preferable.

Ruppert's view (and that of others who are aware and not in denial for whatever reason) is that you should do things like make sure you have no debt, insulate your homes, and organize at a local level to gain the knowledge to grow your own food (the skills that people used to have in this respect have largely disappeared).

I commented on this late last night but the post vanished and some of my thanks markers...anyway...watched it just now.

The outfit? Does it make a big difference to the watcher/audience what the messenger is wearing?
I would love all politicians and Gurus to spread their word naked so one doesn't concentrate on how they present themselves....just on the 'message'. Sitting behind a desk would help as so we wouldn't get distracted by nether regions.

I really should google the guy as he seemed to be sitting in his own lounge somehere in USA with a sideboard and a chair...all the comforts of a western home. If he was preaching his message from a mountain and was living 'off the land'' or similar lifestyle, I would take him more seriously. As I haven't googled him, maybe he is?

I respect his views but all this 'end of the world' stuff bugs me a bit..sorry Asheron. It would help with your posts if we knew more about you too...puts it into context.
