9/11  Some mass email I got. look for original quote on
        <DEAD>www.ed.brocku.ca/~nmarshal/nostradamus.htm<DEAD>
      There will be a great thunder (collapsing of buildings),Two brothers
      (World Trade Buildings) torn apart by Chaos, while the fortress
      endures (America), the great leader will succumb(whoevers in charge
      of destruction), The third big war will begin when the big city is
      burning(New York)" - Nostradamus 1654
        \_ wouldn't "the fortress endures" be more like the Pentagon?
        \_ feh. There will be a great thunder (i farted), two brothers torn
           apart by Chaos (my shits) while the fortress endures (my ass), the
           great leader will succumb (me), the third big war (battle with
           constipation) will begin when the big city is burning (my
           hemhorroids -- NY isn't "burning" anyway).
        \_ Nostradamus didn't say this, see http://fury.com/article/925.php

On one hand, by taking two separate brief prophecies, one can form any kind of after-the-fact prediction that one wants to, magnetic-poetry-style, but more importantly, the first quote wasn't written by Nostradamus at all but was written five years ago by 82 Neil Marshall 9/13: The site is apparently pulled down now , a Canadian high school senior in his 83 Critical Analysis of Nostradamus 9/13: 84 Google cache copy . It's just amazing coincidence (or a great cosmic gift, you decide) that the single example he made up for his paper happened to be so appropriate today. For those naysayers, note that (until today's blogs get indexed by Google) a search for ' 85 brothers torn apart by chaos' retrieves only one entry, the paper mentioned above, while an actual Nostradamus prophecy segment such as ' 86 that which is enclosed in iron and letter in a fish' retrieves nearly 40, all from Nostradamus sites, several of which have the full translated texts. As for the other part, "The third big war will begin when the big city is burning," well 87 that doesn't appear on the web at all (again, until google indexes the new blog entries). It's just another urban legend, only operating on Internet time: Shaped, propagated, and publicly debunked, all on the very same day.
