Is there a bullet-point list of things that John Titor said have come true or close to coming true? I know there are 100s of threads on it..
Listening to Aug 2010 Oliver Williams C2C AM show here in the office.
Here is a list I complied awhile back Updates in green .
My goal here is to compare as many Titor predictions I can muster and compare what was a hit and what was a miss and what is debatable or waiting to pass. As I am referring to my print out copy of the story I am gonna be paraphrasing alot so bare with me.
1.Ice caps not melting any faster than they are now.
This one is the first one I come across and it is debatable. Ice caps are melting but the rate of melt is something to be determined...
As of now, we now know that many of the climate scientists officially lied about their data because of the email leaks provided by anonymous.
2. No centralized churches.
Waiting to pass, however as more churches are surrounded by scandal more people are leaving the mainstream churches... and if the Vatican were nuked the mother church would lose its influence over the rest of the Christian religions...
The churches are still surrounded in scandal and when pope Benedict starts calling for a one world bank to regulate economic problems I think anyone can plainly see their is a problem...The church is definitely pushing more people away with it's actions.
3. Wireless internet node.
A quick google search says this one is a
fficial&client=firefox-a" target="_blank" class="postlink">hit

4. Civil war that starts in 2005
You have your opinion and I have mine but lets hold this to the letter of scrutiny and say no hit. Not yet anyways.
Obviously not happening by 2005
5. N-day 2015
Waiting.
6.Hydrogen fuel cells and more efficient solar cells
A hit but one need not be a time traveler to predict this one.
Well now solar cells have become incredibly more advanced... They even have screen printing solar cells now. Hydrogen fuel cells are also advancing quite nice. I would suggest anyone interest look up browns gas and electrolyzers. Hydrogen from water.
7. Phone service via web.
Hit
8. Genetic medicine and cloning organs are the obvious new techs of the future.
Yes they are
These days they are making human pig hybrids for organ transplants that have less chance of rejection and florescent glow in the dark cats. We have entered freaky times with genetic engineering.
9.It is a mistake to give anyone your unwavering belife... but you will find that out in 2005.
Hit? Miss? You decide. Katrina landed in 2005 along with the FEMA FUBAR.
It should be noted the true death count of Katrina will never be known. I was online listening with the other scanners during that time. Listening to the talk of burning body piles. No body in government should be given your unwavering belief.
10.While you sit and watch your constitution being torn away from you, you willfully eat poisoned food , buy manufactured products no one needs and turn an uncaring eye away from the millions of people suffering and dying all around you.
Hit hit hit and hit.
11. Movies and TV shows distributed over the net as the entertainment industry destabilizes/ decentralizes .
We are watching that happen today. It is an inevitable hit. Torrents and YT will end the era of TV.
And now all the movies are switching to the 3d format to compete with internet torrents. And TV is also losing out to things like the woman who loves cats and leave Britney alone and other such youtube favorites. Their is even talk with doing away with broadcast TV on capitol hill.
12.Does the continuing conflict between Arabs and Jews have anything to do with the up coming war? Titor responded YES.
Waiting to see what Isreal and Iran will do.
13. A high speed train system connects the larger cities.
Waiting
14.I believe there is a great deal of progress in treating the cancer cells with modified viruses.
HIT
15. Real disruptions in world events begin with the destabilization of the West as a result of degrading US foreign policy and consistency. This becomes apparent around 2004 as civil unrest develops near the next presidential election."
With the invasion of Iraq in 2003 Oil started going up which by all rights and means could be considered the beginning of destabilization of the west from a historical perspective. And if you did not notice the civil unrest during the last elections as protesters were confined in free speech zones or rounded up into warehouses as they got shot, tazed , and microwaved....
This one is a hit.
16. How and why do the Arabs Jews become entangled in the civil war of the U.S.A?
They are not directly involved but political situations are dependant on Western stability, which collapses in 2005.
Well since our western stability is in a state of collapse but has yet to officaly crumble I say MISS!
17. No olympics
AFTER 2004.
Waiting.
Miss
18.Can anyone tell me how many companies in the United States still manufacture bicycle tires today? Anyone who still has a bike in 2008 will find out.
If you can find a US company that manufactures bicycle tires let me know!
HIT!
I don't know of any US companies that manufacture conventional bicycle tires. I do know of a new start up company that formed in this last year. They make neon glow in the dark bicycle tires. You can see it on the website kickstarter. It is a California company. The idea being that a driver might miss a reflector but a driver can't possibly miss a whole lit up bike tire. As for conventional bicycle tires... not one US company still produces them.
19.Avoiding conflict with the FEDERAL POLICE and national guard.
SURPRISE! The unconstitutional federal police EXIST NOW!
Hit
In fact their are plenty of pictures of the DHS federal police at these occupy protests.
20.Is a draft coming. Titor said YES.
As of this date it is a miss while we wait and see.
21.Mad Cow pandemic
Many more people have mad cow then you realize. In japan medical experiments proved that CJD can last for years in lab rats... can you translate that to human? No hit. No miss... Just realize this is a subject you should investigate for yourself.
I believe this is a hit waiting to be accepted the increase in Alzheimer disease may have alot more to do with vCJD as the symptoms of the two diseases are very similar.
22.Hydrogen is converted into propane because it is easier to handle.
I think this is a
hit
because if science can make hydrogen from propane logically
they should be able to reverse the process...so I say hit.
23. A poem named a soldiers winter.
Written by Larry Cluck in 2006
HIT
Correction Clucks poem was not the same poem. Sam posted the proper poem earlier in this thread. But the poem is real.
24.Are you really surprised to find out that Iraq has nukes now or is it just BS to whip everyone up into accepting the next war?
Yes that is a hit hands down.
25. Will you readily be able to identify the enemy? Titor responds: they will be the ones arresting and holding people with out due process.
I think you know the answer as to weather or not this is a hit or a miss.
Hit hands down. The police hold all kinds of folks without due process from gitmo to oakland the police have become out of control with little regard to the law other then the law they make up at the time they arrest.
