$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Revi', 'O')kay we're about 9 hours past the tipping point now. What is supposed to happen?


We're now 13 days past the tipping point. What are we looking for, specifically?

North and South Korea getting ready for war. The US sending carriers and subs over there. Russia and China dropping the dollar. Pick one.

The tipping point was claimed to be a financial deal. It was supposed to happen weeks ago. Another couple artillery shells, in a war zone which has never stopped being one, doesn't count. Neither do the earthquakes. The whole thing was a bad joke, admit it.

In your reptilian brains/ personal lizard thinking , yes......

It wuz a non-event!

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')he R-for-reptilian Complex part of your mind is responsible for the lightning fast, instant judgments about most situations in your environment. Your inner reptile is amazingly fast in its response to universe. The speed is really cool. Unfortunately, it, which is to say, your inner reptilian mind, is pretty stupid. The reptilian part of your mind only has 3/three (note how you feel about numbers...the emotional response to numbers comes from your inner reptile) modes of response, which as we all know, are Fight, Flight, or frozen (in Fear). Note how you feel about lists, that comes from the reptilian part of mind. Also note your own emotional response to Capitalized Words, and Bolding...again, this response is from your inner reptile. Also note how the lack of either on the word 'frozen' plays in your mind, especially emotionally. If it is perceived as 'discordant', that feeling associated comes from deep in the fear part of your inner reptile mind.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '
')Uranium and Artillery:
North Korean Revelations and Provocations
Discussed by Victor Cha and Kathleen Harrington


http://www.theseoultimes.com/ST/index.html


Conflict on Yellow Sea— South Korean military fired back some 70 shells of artillery when North Korea fired some 200 shells on its Yeonpyeong Island on Nov. 23, 2010. Two S. Korean soldiers were killed and a dozen others were wounded in the attack.

On Nov 12, 2010, nuclear scientist Siegfried Hecker and his Stanford University colleagues John Lewis and Robert Carlin were taken on a tour of the recently updated Yongbyon Nuclear Complex in North Korea.
They were shown an under-construction experimental light-water reactor (LWR), as well as an entirely new facility housing 2,000 centrifuges, machines intended to enrich uranium for the new reactor.

Hecker and his colleagues expressed surprise at the sophistication and cleanliness of the new plant, characteristics that were not previously attributed to Yongbyon. After he returned from his trip, Hecker privately informed the White House of these new revelations regarding the North¡¯s nuclear program, which the administration had suspected was continuing despite UN sanctions.

Following Hecker¡¯s revelations, North Korea fired scores of artillery rounds on November 23 near Yeonpyeong Island along the Northern Limit Line (NLL) in the Yellow Sea. Two South Korean marines and two civilians were killed in the clash, and the island¡¯s 1,600 residents were partially evacuated.


This suggests Hecker's declaration was not immediate, 2 days lag from exposure to information handover is reasonable considering North Korean security and paranoia. Given the time difference the real lag is only about 1 day.

Y2K was a successful operation in eliminating dodgy two digit code from critical software, there were many examples of trivial code that wasn't fixed!
Some websites for example displayed the date as 1st January 19100. ;)

I suppose that 11/14/2010 is as good a tipping point as any. We are in some trouble with the QE2 not working, the Irish debt crisis, the Chinese and Russians dumping the dollar and general financial mayhem happening. It seems like we are entering a new phase of disorder lately.
