Astrologists and other doomsayers aren’t what they used to be. No, wait a minute. Nonsense. Why of course they are.
And the Gesellschaft zur wissenschaftlichen Untersuchung von Parawissenschaften (The Skeptics) has proven it yet again. Of the 140 predictions put out there for 2009 by some 50 well-known psychic, clairvoyant types, none of them were right. None of them except the one from the guy who predicted that Boris Becker would get married again, I mean. And that was a tough one, right?
Natural disasters had a bad year too, despite all the dire predictions. But there will be a more detailed analysis on why that was from the Clairvoyants of Copenhagen later on this week, I’m sure. Or maybe not. But still.
“Vorhersagen-Klassiker seien auch Naturkatastrophen, wie beispielsweise Stürme in der Karibik.”

I’m also willing to get behind the idea that spring will roll around at some point – date undetermined, mind you…
Prediction: As the loonies in Copenhagen freeze their asses off waiting in lines to get into the “Global Warming” lectures by ManBearPig Gore, they will fail to see the humor in their own situation.
Journalists Freeze Waiting To Get Into Global Warming Conference.
It doesn’t get any better than this.
