I think this may have just been a quack getting lucky with a prediction, but it's weird nonetheless. This is from alt.prophecies.nostradamus. Back on August 31 a person going by Xinoehpoel posted this:

"Something is going to happen tomorrow. This is a witness against everyone on this newsgroup. I hate this newsgroup, and everyone on it sucks. REPENT! You are all evil liars! Do not be so evil, and be holy. You are going to get me killed because of the truth of my mouth. I am not telling you what is going to happen until it does, because an EVIL and adulterous generation seeks for a sign."

Obviously, nothing happened the next day. When people posted as much, the guy responded one week ago with this message:

"Wait 7 days, and then maybe I'll answer this post. You see, I am going away in seven days, and you will not hear from me again."

The message thread the guy started was titled "911" also, and this happened on 9/11 and one of the planes was flight 11.

Oh yeah -- EA has suspended Majestic. I bet that game is killed at this point. I can't imagine them restarting it anytime soon.

I saw a reference to that post earlier, but I didn't notice the 911. That can't possibly be what it looks like.

"Oh yeah -- EA has suspended Majestic."

Poor bastards. :(

That post is pretty scary...how'd you happpen upon this?

I saw it at Lum the Mad's boards. It looks like a legit thread archived by Dejanews.

There's no indication that the guy was anything other than a kook who got lucky with a vague prediction. I suspect that someone will forward it to the authorities and they'll look into it.

Yeah, that's possible...but it sure seems a bit too precise to just be a lucky guess.

I caught a post on Usenet pointing to the "911" thread on alt.prohecies.nostradamus yesterday. Apparently several people have already reported him to the FBI. It's very chilling.
