My, my we do get wound up over nothing don't we?
Now is where I pull out my Usenet experience to do a little myth
blasting...

Xinoehpoel - spelled backwards is Leo Phoenix - an infamous Usenet
sock puppet and troll... He has a long established history of bull****
on Usenet.

The address - tesnal@psl.moc is not a real domain. Reversal gives you
lanset@lsp.com, a known bogus addy for Leo Phoenix although it is a
real domain name. As a sock puppet - Leo Phoenix is all the time
coming off the wall with crap like that and is a constant source of
amusement. The timing was way off and his foolish attempts to try and
connect his BS from Aug 30 to todays events is absurd.

There's also a posting going around attributed to Nostradamus. It
references the twin brothers being torn apart in the city of York by
chaos - supposedly written by Nostradamus in 1654. Only 2 problems
with this. All of Nostradamus' works are written online at several
sites and are easily searchable. He NEVER referenced the city of York
- the writing is not Nostradamus.

Oh yeh - Nostradamus died in 1566 making it highly unlikely that he
wrote anything in 1654.

All the reputable websites that have translations and discussions of Nostradamus say it is a hoax. Most of those excerpts that people keep quoting are either:

Samples for interpretation explanation: i.e. the Two Brothers line was from a website which was saying how you could write anything and apply it to multiple events. It was never written by Nost. and was not claimed to be.

Pranks by sick, twisted individuals who want to spread their own apocalyptic rhetoric. These folks are idiots.

And right, the dates are wrong.
