He isn't going to clarify of course. If something happens on Aug. 4 GMT it looks like a very specific hit. If something happens in the period of Aug. 3-5, it is still within serveral hours of being spot-on, and probably close enough to be considered a hit by woo-woo standards. If something just happens that week, it can still be deemed "significant".Ed said:
Similarly, since the U.S. (and Europe) has interests and does business all around the globe, there is virtually no part of the world that could not be construed as "western" in some sense. Again, if something happens in the U.S. or Europe, it looks like he made a specific prediction in advance. If something terrible happens in Outer Mongolia, well then he can just blow some smoke about the westernizing influence of global trade or American imperialism or foreign aid or somesuch, and still paint it as a hit. The "western" Fallujah police HQ incident is an example of this.
His later statement that it would be a result of "malicious intent" may appear specific also but it's no better really. If there are no terrorist attacks that week anywhere in the world, a natural disaster could always be ascribed to the maliciously negligent actions of multinational corporations whose pollution supposedly cause disasters indirectly by damaging the environment. Or perhaps he will lay it at the feet of Project HAARP controlling the weather or something--part of the Great American Imperialist Conspiracy[TM]. Malicious intent is just as broad (and useless) as the other parts of his prediction.
Obviously it would be "better", from his perspective, if over 100 people were killed in a single incident in the geographical U.S. or Europe on Aug. 4th GMT as a result of a deliberate, malicious act. The possibility exists that that could happen of course (though the odds are against it IMO) in which case he might be able to leverage this "prediction" into a book deal, TV appearances, etc, depending on how entertaining he is.
And if Aug. 4 comes and goes, well, he can always claim some mudslide in Chile in the early morning hours of Aug. 5th that left almost 100 villagers homeless as a fulfillment of his prophecy. That's good enough to convince himself, if no one else, and he can always try again a few months down the road to make another "prediction" that will propel him into the Big Time.

Da-da-bump!
Three killed in Uzbekistan blasts
Yup, more attacks on "Western" targets alright
Your recent flame war and crusade against Claus wouldn't have anything to do with diverting attention from your prediction......would it?

That anyone can use the news that people have been blown apart by bombs to boost their own imagined psychic powers, is - quite frankly - sickening.
It never ceases to amaze me just how low some people will go to put themselves in the limelight.

If the White House is listening to Luci, we are in big, big trouble.

No. I don't think anyone is listening to Lucianarchy. After all these years of desperately trying to promote himself as a star in the paranormal world, he has gotten exactly nowhere. He is nothing but a sad character, who would deserve our pity, if it wasn't for his mean and fraudulous behavior.
He is completely marginalized in every community he has ever entered. He can't seem to make it anywhere. He cannot command any support for his claims, not even in the wackiest parts of the world of superstition.
That says a lot.

When I had the perception, I said quite clearly that I really hoped that nothing would happen that day. I was asked by some here to record them when I got them. I realise now, that only serves those who want to riducule and be nasty.
Lucianarchy said:
But "hope" has nothing to do with this, does it? You either get a premonition that comes true - or you don't. This idea of yours that people - me, in particular, it seems - can thwart an upcoming event is nothing but a cop-out. That way, you can always claim that you were either right, or that the baaaaaaaaad skeptics ruined the whole thing.
Tell me something: Just how many people do you recon actually believe that you have paranormal powers? Can you give an estimate? 1? 10? 100? 1000? 10,000? 100,000? A million?

Please have the courtesy to at least find out about my perceptions before demanding things I don't claim to do. All I know, is what I have said. I do not get PsiNN newsflashes with mindvideo and time-travelling reporters, I pick up perceptions and strong feelings associated with simple words or dates. These happen during meditation sessions, and are 'instant' complete packages of information, which tend to fade out in intensity with time.

Now if these things that happened today. 8/01/04, all happened on 8/4/04 I assume Luci would be claiming victory. But lets say that on 8/4/04 the world has it's first peacefull day ever, will Luci claim to have only been of by a few hours?"

No. There will be no judging, it will be self-evident, either way.

This is in direct violation with what you have preciously claimed. You have, in the past, posted extremely vague predictions, and the, after-the-fact, tried to claim that you really predicted a specific event.
Do you really think you will persuade anyone this way?
