My goal here is to compare as many Titor predictions I can muster and compare what was a hit and what was a miss and what is debatable or waiting to
pass. As I am referring to my print out copy of the story I am gonna be paraphrasing alot so bare with me.
1.Ice caps not melting any faster than they are now.
This one is the first one I come across and it is debatable. Ice caps are melting but the rate of melt is something to be determined...
2. No centralized churches.
Waiting to pass, however as more churches are surrounded by scandal more people are leaving the mainstream churches... and if the Vatican were nuked
the mother church would lose its influence over the rest of the Christian religions...
3. Wireless internet node.
A quick google search says this one is a
hit
4. Civil war that starts in 2005
You have your opinion and I have mine but lets hold this to the letter of scrutiny and say no hit. Not yet anyways.
5. N-day 2015
Waiting.
6.Hydrogen fuel cells and more efficient solar cells
A hit but one need not be a time traveler to predict this one.
7. Phone service via web.
Hit
8. Genetic medicine and cloning organs are the obvious new techs of the future.
Yes they are
9.It is a mistake to give anyone your unwavering belife... but you will find that out in 2005.
Hit? Miss? You decide. Katrina landed in 2005 along with the FEMA FUBAR.
10.While you sit and watch your constitution being torn away from you, you willfully eat poisoned food , buy manufactured products no one needs and
turn an uncaring eye away from the millions of people suffering and dying all around you.
Hit hit hit and hit.
11. Movies and TV shows distributed over the net as the entertainment industry destabilizes/ decentralizes .
We are watching that happen today. It is an inevitable hit. Torrents and YT will end the era of TV.
12.Does the continuing conflict between Arabs and Jews have anything to do with the up coming war? Titor responded YES.
Waiting to see what Isreal and Iran will do.
13. A high speed train system connects the larger cities.
Waiting
14.I believe there is a great deal of progress in treating the cancer cells with modified viruses.
HIT
15. Real disruptions in world events begin with the destabilization of the West as a result of degrading US foreign policy and consistency. This
becomes apparent around 2004 as civil unrest develops near the next presidential election."
With the invasion of Iraq in 2003 Oil started going up which by all rights and means could be considered the beginning of destabilization of the west
from a historical perspective. And if you did not notice the civil unrest during the last elections as protesters were confined in free speech zones
or rounded up into warehouses as they got shot, tazed , and microwaved.... well then you must of joined ATS today.
This one is a hit.
16. How and why do the Arabs Jews become entangled in the civil war of the U.S.A?
They are not directly involved but political situations are dependant on Western stability, which collapses in 2005.
Well since our western stability is in a state of collapse but has yet to officaly crumble I say MISS!
17. No olympics
AFTER 2004.
Waiting.
18.Can anyone tell me how many companies in the United States still manufacture bicycle tires today? Anyone who still has a bike in 2008 will find
out.
If you can find a US company that manufactures bicycle tires let me know!
HIT!
19.Avoiding conflict with the FEDERAL POLICE and national guard.
SURPRISE! The unconstitutional federal police EXIST NOW!
Hit
20.Is a draft coming. Titor said YES.
As of this date it is a miss while we wait and see.
21.Mad Cow pandemic
Many more people have mad cow then you realize. In japan medical experiments proved that CJD can last for years in lab rats... can you translate that
to human? No hit. No miss... Just realize this is a subject you should investigate for yourself.
22.Hydrogen is converted into propane because it is easier to handle.
I think this is a
hit
because if science can make hydrogen from propane logically
they should be able to reverse the process...so I say hit.
23. A poem named a soldiers winter.
Written by Larry Cluck in 2006
HIT
24.Are you really surprised to find out that Iraq has nukes now or is it just BS to whip everyone up into accepting the next war?
Yes that is a hit hands down.
25. Will you readily be able to identify the enemy? Titor responds: they will be the ones arresting and holding people with out due process.
I think you know the answer as to weather or not this is a hit or a miss.
So lets add up the score. HIT 13 MISS 2 Debatable/Waiting 10
Thats My conservative score. Whats yours?
