Obviously, the media is not reporting this because "they" don't want you to know the truth!

In all seriousness, given how many disaster predictions we see all the time, I'm somewhat surprised that none of them have coincided with a *real* disaster by pure chance, close enough that the 'prophet' gets famous off of it. But I can't recall a single time when some woo-peddler lucked out close enough to make major headlines, certainly not in my lifetime. Has anyone heard or read of such a thing? IIRC Nostradamus supposedly made a couple of hits, but neither of them were so close as to make even a mild skeptic wonder about it.

Prophets are either specific and wrong, or they're vague and right.
I'm with you, Jobar. I don't know anyone who's been specific and right, not at a higher frequency than would be expected from random chance.
