Wonderful. It’s going to be the end of the TokyoBayer household, and the world’s media is concentrating on the tourist industry.
It’s all over the Chinese language media, including Taiwan. Some of my wife’s friends are really concerned.
It’s supposed to happen tomorrow, some say at 4:00 am, local time. (Friday July 4th, 5:00 pm)
Anyone who knows me knows that I am an atheist, and have no time for such silliness, and even my not-an-atheist wife doesn’t put any stock in the prediction.
But, just in case this is my last post ever. . . .
I’m sure I was alive for that event. And as I play a practicing geography talking-type-guy on TV, that “major crack” would be catastrophic to the entire pacific. Of some interest to the rest of the world. Page 3 of the old gray lady.
Little known fact: The USA leads the world in paper towel production. Can one president toss enough rolls? Thomas Jefferson could.
Last month, Tatsuki appeared to scale back her prediction about a July 5 megaquake, telling the national newspaper Sankei that it may not happen. But she fell short of entirely withdrawing her warning.
The Sankei article linked above offers us this:
she has corrected her course by saying that the specific date “July 5th” is “not the day something will happen.” She also commented to the Sankei Shimbun, saying, “The high interest is proof that disaster prevention awareness is on the rise.”
That’s a relief. Something, somewhere will happen on July 5, or another day or year. Maybe.
Now, this might not be “iron-clad” but certainly it’s more than enough evidence for folks to prudently cancel trips to Japan costing several thousand dollars.
Where is this Manga actually written, ilustrated and printed?
It may be a time zone issue were dealing with.
Clairvoyant types are not good with that stuff.
I know this because of popular culture, Star Trek, and Back to the Future and Nostradamus(no, I never read his Quatrains, just watched a bad movie hosted by Orson Welles.)
