I just received this from a friend in Canada. Please watch it. If you live in USA or Canada...watch it twice.

Richard. Get your hard hat. The sky is falling. I am moving to Scotland. And I am wearing my tinfoil suit all the way there. |

If there is any truth in the video you'd better buy your tikket whilst you can still afford one. That video is SCARY! I'd be inclined to phone up my bank and get them to convert my dollars into another currency. They will do that. Just because you bank in USA doesn't mean that your savings have to be in dollars. They will administer your account in whatever currency you stipulate. There has been talk here recently about the collapse of the pound too. The opposition conservative chancellor voiced this and they have been doing their best to silence him. I think they know more than they are letting on. There are financial leaders from all around the globe running around like headless chickens. |

No one really knows what to do about the financial melt down. There are a lot of ideas and plans. I certainly don't have a clue. But panic is not the thing to do. But we better stay alert. Be ALERT. The world needs more LERTS. |

Just in case anyone falls for this, it is a hoax, debunked here:

Additionally, the Wikipedia article on Hal Turner is enlightening:

Thanks Gregg, I've never even heard of Hal Turner. I hope I never hear any more about him. He should be prosecuted. There seems to be an endless procession of news articles in the U.K. predicting an ever worsening situation. Once we get into 2009 I think we'll know what's what.
