I sure hope he had something better to say than Norad gets hacked and Beiber bites it. He traveled a hell of a long way and seems to be breaking some serious rules by spilling the beans...simply to say those trivial things.

Exactly. Which is why I kept asking him about bigger things, and I was surprised when he was pretty much like "nope, not really."
I'm with you: It's probably some kid with a good mind but no drive to use it on anything but internet trolling. There are worse things to do, and he was very polite and plain with his story. I told him he must understand that I don't really believe a word of it, and he said he understands.
But that leaves us with this NORAD thing... It IS a nice soon-to-come thing to watch for, so hence the thread. We will see and either be astounded or have ourselves another closed thread. (I'm erring towards the latter.)

The fact he says there is no major event between this weekend and 2051 is laughable alone. What's the significance of the Trojan Horse? Do they manage to isolate it and clean it up, therefore nothing out of the norm ever happens again?

One day it would be real nice if one of these turned out to be true. The thing that set off alarms for me with this story is him not knowing what North Korea was. Something very significant would have to have happened for it to disappear from the map. Whatever that something was would be in the history books. A more natural answer, to me, would have been "oh, you mean a part of unified Korea". If Korea was no longer a country it would be even more unbelievable they didn't know anything about it. You are only talking 4 decades from now.
