First rule about predictions: Only predict stuff that won’t happen for a year or more, so your prediction will be forgotten and you won’t look silly when nothing actually happens.

When the prediction is for tomorrow, just wait until tomorrow and then when nothing happens, don’t report it.

As it is, this thread will still be fresh in our memories tomorrow when nothing happens.

Of course, the weasle-out will be that someone, somewhere saw a flying object that wasn’t, in fact, identified.

Yeah, but for unprovable, mass hysterai things, predicting in advance might work better.

There will be a lot of a-holes watching the sky tomorrow night...

Think none of them will see “anything”?
