Grr. The Washington Post has a story today about the woo woos who believe this "harmonic concordance" is going to bring world peace.
Post Article (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A17429-2003Nov8.html)
They start out with the woo woo theory and then (hooray!) quote our beloved Phil Plait who says,
A Star of David is formed only when the comet Chiron -- which Plait calls "a lump of ice" -- is included. And even if Chiron is counted, the six bodies don't form a true Star of David because they are not all the same distance from the Earth or on the same plane, he said.
"What they're going to do is not going to have some effect physically. Mentally, maybe," he said Friday. "But I would much prefer that people . . . actually went out and did something proactive."
Unfortunately, the Post then goes on:
But what about the fall of the Berlin Wall? The end of apartheid in South Africa? The collapse of the Soviet Union? Spiritualists note that those events all happened after thousands gathered to meditate for peace during a similar planetary alignment in 1987 called the "harmonic convergence."
There is, of course, no follow up to that bit of nonsense.
Stupid morons! Sheesh! Why must they do this? Grrrr.
