Actually, you know what is scary? I seem to recall an add for a show on History.Channel where there was a REAL mathemetician who claimed that he'd come up
with something much like Sheldon's Psychohistory. They were calling the special 'The next Nostraudamus', but I was thinking more along the lines of
I hope his name's not that guy from Azimov's Foundation novels....
After a quick browse of History Channels homepage, the episode is airing TONIGHT, 10/30 at 9pm EST/PST... And the name of the guy fortunatly is NOT Sheldon,
but Dr. Bueno de Mesquitam who has a PHD in Games theory. The whole hook for the History channel special is they're doing a compare and contrast between
Dr Mesquitam and Nostrodamus, pointing up both points they agree on and what they dont.
Hear that thunder rolling till it seems to split the sky?
That's every ship in Grayson's Navy taking up the cry-
NO QUARTER!!!
