As we sat eating brownies and sipping egg nog spiked with Bailey's the evening was getting late.
MA: Did you read Precognition like I asked?
J: Yes I read it several times and I must say MA that it is just all over the place. You used it to warn about SARS and you used it to post about Ebola over the years. There was a lot of back and forth with other posters about religion and stuff. But you used a lot of humor too.
It is a very cool thread because of the very long time line involved and all the people who seem to know you so well.
But MA I have no idea what the theme is if it isn't microbiology.
MA: James, it is just as advertised. When I titled the thread Precognition there was one snippet of a report about a strange pneumonia found in China.
I felt something very odd was afoot and had a very bad feeling about this bug.
It has been this way all my life. I do not consider it strange to have very strong feelings that later turn out to be true. It is part of my very being.
I assure you that there are others who can testify to their experience with hunches, feelings, foresight or precognition.
Thus it was with that thread. I took to the Internet to chronicle the events I felt were about to occur and when they did occur, I simply reported them.
I also opined on my feeling about the relationship to Ebola and fruit bats - which also proved true.
Precognition means only what it says - sometimes we know things are about to happen before they happen.
I have pinged you because you are a poster on MA’s Precognition thread - and I thought you might like to hear what she has to say about that posting.
