    How is this kind of 'news' posting any better than reading forwarded emails from other nerds?

    I think by late '99 everyone with an ounce of sense knew that a serious recession was on the way regardless of who won the next presidential election, so that one is certainly not all that 'prophetic'. The war probably wasn't that great a leap either, as the fact that Saddam still remained in power seemed to a lot of people to be a serious thorn in Bush Jr's side, even then.
