Default Little black box sees into the future...

After watching a show on the national geographic channel there was a mention of a project by the name of "Global Consciousness Project"... apparently it is capable of predicting major world events hours before they occur.

Can This Black Box See Into the Future? - Science - redOrbit

And apparently it has been around for quite some time. Predicting events such as 911 and the major recent tsunami.

This is some really interesting stuff - quantum tunneling -- random number generators, and a really small package. These random number generators are placed throughout the world.

global consciousness project - Google Search

Given the right amount of knowledge, we can all make predictions on the outcome of a thing. "We predict the weather every day", it is nothing fanciful. Computers just do it quicker.

I'd be interested in knowing how many 'false predictions' they've had over the life of their project. It's easy to take a random excursion, and say it accurately predicted something-or-other, some X number of hours before the event...because they're working from hindsight...and if they get a peak, and no subsequent 'event', they can just toss that one out, and no one's the wiser.

I'd put this in the same ***egory as Nostradamus. Interesting, but contrived after the fact.
