False Prophecy : Nostradamus and 9/11

This site explains the claim that the French Physician and Astrologer, Nostradamus (1503-1566), predicted the attacks on the US on September 11, 2001. Apparently, people claim that Nostradamus wrote several quatrains predicting the attacks. However, one of the most revealing quatrains or poems which apparently predicts the attacks of 9/11 was penned in 1654, meaning it's impossible for Nostradamus to have written that prophecy. The actual poems / prophetic writings are listed on the web page where the author of the page attempts to completely debunk them. I cannot see how there are people out there who actually believe that a man from the 16th century could have possibly predicted an event nearly 500 years in the future, but whatever. This alleged prophecy just seems to me to be a coincidence which certain people have fabricated into something which relates to the events that took place on September 11.

Cryptozoology: The Mothman

The reports of "The Mothman" first started to surface in Virginia and West Virginia (primarily in Point Pleasant, VA) in the mid-1960's. A majority of the sightings originated from "the TNT area", an olf ammunitions plant in Point Pleasant. The Mothman is said to be gray or brown in color, does not wear clothes, has large red eyes, and has two incredibly large wings instead of arms. He is four or five feet tall and when he flies, he never flaps his wings, he just shoots straight up into the air and directs himself wherever he wants to go. The Mothman is capable of flying at high speeds which helps his "favorite activity" of chasing cars. It is said that those who witness the Mothman suffer sever psycological damage and develop extreme fears of this beast.

Project Galactic Guide provides a process of three distinct stages to begin communicating with the dead. This is basically a Do It Yourself tutorial to sommunicating with the dead. Apparently any single person is capable of completing these stages and, attaining the ability of crossing over and communicating with the deceased. The first step seems to be fairly obvious to the casual observer of this site: "you must first establish the the person you are attempting to communicate with is, in fact, dead." Second, you must go abouta way of contacting and communicating with them (whether it be through whispering close to the deceased person's ear, or through morse code, or through religion). The third stage is that of interpreting the deceased person's response,which "may come in any number of forms." After looking at these simple stages, I'm not too sure that this is a valid system of communicating with the other side, if that is even possible.
