George Noory had a guest on Coast to Coast talking about the Shmita in September. I think he said 23 September would be the big day. I don’t know that I believe it but his guess is probably as good as anybody else’s.
Guess I'll stock up on popcorn, meat, beer and soda. If things are going south, I might as well enjoy myself while it happens. If not, I'll still enjoy my time waiting for it (happily retired and have most bases covered).
