>>>>>[Hey guys, I was getting somewhat bored last night and ran about an
interesting tidbit:

In view of the "5/5/20" Theory, archaeologists led by Dr. Nortram Butrim III
have remeasured the Great Pyramid. The original theory, used the idea that
1 inch was equal to 1 year of "Earth Time." The scary thing is, that this
predicted( by hindsight of course!) the Birth of Christ, World War I, and World
War II. The theory was basically laughed at because it predicted the end of the
worl to be May 5, 2000. Well, we all know that that didn't happen!

Dr. Butrim and his colleagues re-calculated the End to be in the spring of 2055.
Just what we needed!]<<<<<

something like
that, it always ends up being extremely close to the present? And how in the
bloody blazes do you lose almost two fragging meters?]<<<<<
