Eek, I'll fix that next time I'm logged into the editor account.

The other claw! I knew his signature was Zube

Perhaps I should give a clue now? I would have made much of it (this) had I been an astrologer.

Astrology, ah, that's somthing to do with the stars, isn't it?

Don't you think you're giving it away?

Probably, but I've enjoyed the discussion. Care to hazard another guess what I learned?

sussed it!

you didn't know they made Transits on Venus and not in Halewood

You didn't discover the DVD "The Aldebaran Mystery and The Eisenhower Briefing Papers - UFO Secrets of the 3rd Reich and World War II" by any chance?

Thanks for the tip, Gnomon. Looks like it's on Youtube. with tinfoil hat on...

Blimey, no, I've learned that today! And I remember why I didn't link to the Tunguska event originally, because it's more of a conspiracy theory.

Hey, wait a minute - Prof Michio Kaku was just discussing Tunguska on TV.

The video Gnomon mentioned is on Youtube on 'UFO TV', and is great. I like the Nazi flying saucers in Antarctica - they look suspiciously like restaurant dish covers. 'Iron Sky' did it better.

still waiting for the correct answer

correct answer = your right!

must bea wrong answer and you'd be err" wrong

Have you read your horoscope lately, Prof?

I think it is something to do with the conjunction between Jupiter, Aldebaran and the Moon, but I can't think what.

OK, let's speculate. Jupiter, also known as Zeus, was the top god in the Greek pantheon. He was famous for chasing the ladies, and sometimes the young men, and he often disguised himself by taking other forms while he seduced his targets - a bull, a swan, a shower of golden rain(!). In this case, Aldebaran is the eye of the bull. So the skies are probably reminding us of the time Zeus in bull form pursued Europa, ploughing out the channel between Europe and Asia (the Bosporus) while he did so. Istanbul lies on this channel. In fact, the moon and the star together, now a symbol of Islam, were an ancient symbol of the city of Istanbul long before Islam was even invented, so this is a double sign that Istanbul will be in the news soon.

I'm guessing that Turkey are going to win the Eurovision.

That turkey...it's not....is it.....Dustin?

The collective wisdom of this site continues to astound.

but he's wrong!

Keep guessing!please

Oh, he's always wrong - don't listen to him

Have you learned that this year's Comets are unlikely to arrive after they went into administration?
