Part of the web bots' weakness is Clif's interpretation and the "human" factor, and Clif is the first one to tell you this. For example, the date targeting is almost always waaay off (often by years), but when it isn't, it's right on. But Clif uses a lunar/Hebrew calendar temporal metric, and this may or may not be the best choice.

A system is theoretically capable of being architected and constructed which does not suffer from these limitations.

The interesting thing here are the possible phenomena and theories explaining them, not the current, crude detection equipment (the web bot software) that is being observed or its margin of error.

Sounds quite reasonable, to me.

However, contrary to public perception . . .

it seems that I’m more closely connected with reason . . .

than some other folks.

LOL.

Are you familiar with the precise software that Clif uses? I think I first heard about the Webbots over a decade ago, it seems long ago, like pre-Y2K -- although I could be mistaken.

I heard the inventor interviewed on Coast to Coast by Art Bell, and although it's an interesting idea, althought the CONCEPT is engaging --- it is utterly worthless without a proven record of accuracy.

And if whatever the webbots retrieve have to be subjected to human interpretation, then we are never being exposed to the raw data.

I think that they used to have this software on sale to the public, but I don't remember the details.

Are you able to read the prediction, where it says what probably will happen is that Israel, through defending its right to exist and by protecting the West from a nuclear Iran will be responsible for untold misery & devestation?

What kind of KOOK would put his signature to such antisemetic drivel??? And where did that KOOK get the idea that Israel is currently winning any popularity contest????

This reminds me of the Nazis love all things occult.

YET... in the right hands, if the software could be developed to simply utter predictions without all the judgmental drivel and obvious antisemetic bias, it could become interesting --- although I suppose IF it worked, then by law, only intel agencies could own it.
