  • Do I even need to say it, enjoy the peace while it lasts...

    No I won't bother going into one of those last warning messages that I could go into, you know the drill anyways. And if you don't you should have been paying attention... clue: stay out of harms way, best advice: use common sense of where you should be located at.

    Do something fun with your families, enjoy life, while you still can. No the world is NOT going to end, but it IS about to get REAL nasty. Prepared to be glued to your TV soon enough.


    Off-topic-
    BTW, I just got back from Chicago, but I couldn't locate Ming.... oh well... I can't imagine him wanting to see me IRL anyways lol.

    So I guess this thread is mostly I'm back thread for a while, with a small sobering reminder about current affairs.

      I think you nailed this prophecy, Thorn.

        I'm twiddling my thumbs before this global conflagration...I must admit I am getting rather impatient.

          Don't be so bloody impatient, you'll get the blood you seek... just remember once it happens you can't take it back....

          **Speaking of which there are rumors that the North Koreans just tested a second nuclear weapon.... there were earthquakes and tremors in NKorea and Japan, that caused this postulation....

            Let them strike, it will probably fail, and consequently NK will be nuked to smitherines, then we will only have 1 country left to worry about.

                      Seriously, let's delve into this issue (because I'm doing laundry, and have nothing else to do).

                      How will the world end?

                      I want scenarios. I get tired of doomsayers saying the world will end. Or in this case, something bad will happen drastically altering everything.

                      How about this prediction. Everyone on this forum will die!!!

                      So what do we have? I've illustrated my possible theories for the collapse of civilization (though it will never truelly collapse). The proliferation of nuclear weapons. But this will take decades before enough nukes get into the hands of terrorists to make a difference. One or 2 nukes in New York and Washington won't do ****. The world will move on. Not that much will change.

                      But when nukes become ubiquitous enough to be in the hands of every nutcase terrorist and anarchist, large countries will cease to exists. Society will revert back to smaller tribal nations. Globalization will cease to happen. It's unrealistic to think we can live in one big peaceful world. It will never happen.

                      Large nations such as the U.S. will not exist in 100 years. It simply cannot happen. Any anarchist will be able to plant enough nukes to wipe out every major american city. People will be forced to live in small farming communities to survive. But it's still civilization. Life will go on.

                        Disease is another possibility. In fact, this is more likely to happen.

                        But any mega killer disease is unlikely. At worst, I expect a repeat of the 1918 flu. Although multiplied due to the larger population. Instead of 50 or 100 million, I expect maybe 1 or 2 billion dead.

                        But so what (though I hope it's not me )? The United States will still exist. Life will go on.

                        edit: Some of my numbers for dead had to be changed, my facts were wrong. I'm still not sure of the multiplier.

                          next up: world war

                          meh. Just doesn't seem likely. China has no reason to get into a war. Russia doesn't either. the middle east isn't united enough to start something. Europe is pretty quite. Aside from a few rogue nations (Venezuela, Iran, and N. Korea), everything should be okay. You still have to watch those Serbians though.

                            I could go on for hours. I love thinking about doomsday.

                            Next up is massive volcanic eruptions or asteroid collisions. Possible, but how would Thorn know about them? (not that he should know about future wars either).

                            Or how about the Big Crunch? Could happen at any time.

                            Or how about scientists creating a black hole or something (yes I know about Hawking radiation) with some particle accelerator? Something that envelops the earth destroying everything. The good thing is I won't know it when it happens. Damn scientists

                              Maybe it has already happened and we are currently living inside the black hole.
