Should you check out this website, the "doctor" claims that the "galactic
alignment" happened in 1997. He seems well-versed in the history.
Also,
this website calls it a "non-event" and has G Hancock's "Fingerprint..." book
quoted.
This guy says the event "galactic alignment" is about 10 minutes long and unseen.
Lastly, as I usually like to play devil's advocate,
this site is a Doomsday site, w/ news of a gravity
shift that are comparable to "end times" -- some legit looking info and charts.
Enjoy!
