what the hell???

if you have microsoft try this on for size...


open MS word, change font size to 48 and then change font type to wingdings then type "Q33NYC" and tell me what you see

[urogard]

yes it's shocking but i would like to know what q33nyc stands for.
cos it could also be a random one

[panagiotakis]

Q33NYC was supposed to be the flight number
of one of the planes that hit WTC.

In tv shows in my country (Greece) about conspiracies,
there was a reference to this.
As they said , there was not such a flight number.

They also presented an artist who makes drawings for
a sunday newspaper here.
In one of his works , few months before 9/11, there
was a man and in the background a tower an a plane
flying towards it. ( if I find, it I will post it)
In his interview, he said that after the incident, he was
questioned ( not from men in black!!)Just typical questions,
nothing worring about him!

I guess we can find a lot of simillar "predictions" around the
world!
The big question for me is , can sth be predicted?
Are there people who can really see the future?
Uncertainty and little science knowledge, help a lot
conspiracies to spread.

If an ape types long enough into a typewrighter, it can write a book. I'm sure that applies here too. If a milion people make random predictions every day one of them is bound to be close to the truth sometime in the future.
So i wouldn't put too much weight on it, unless of course he seems to be "lucky" in making predictions that come true very often

I would argue this point and say yes. I would actually even argue that we are coming close, or already are at the point where we are able to do so.
Why? because the future consists mainly of human interactions based on their behavior.
If you had enough data about a certain person and an adequate computer program and the necesary calculating power it would be able to calculate in real time what that person is thinking and what it would do next and how it would react to certain situations.

If you then had data about every single person and way of monitoring their enviroment you could predict accurately the future. all you would be limited to then would be your processing power.
Example
Someone decides to go to a party => They want to leave but since they get "persuaded" easily by their friends they stay a bit longer (this is where data about every single person and enviroment comes in, data about friends and how they want the party to last as long as possible) => Said person doesn't get enough sleep during the night => is a construction worker and makes a grave mistake during his working process => Inspections fail to notice this mistake (this is also where data about every single person and enviroment comes in, inspector tired/faulty equipment due to production error, etc.) => building collapses, many dead

So personally i think it's possible to predict future. all we are lacking for now is lack of info. I mean everyone can predict the future on a short enough timescale. If you throw a ball, then after short analysis of it's flight trajectory you can estimate where it will go, if you make a computer make the calculations it needs much less time and calculates the result much more accurately.

I agree that the more detailed information we know, the closer to a prediction we are.
But there is always a possibility of an unknown factor or an unpredictable
factor to apear.
"Future is always in motion" as master Yoda says in one of Star wars film!

which again brings me to the point that if you have information about everything you can predict accurately what will happen thousands and billions of years into the future, therefore elimitating this "unknown factor".

Of course it does come into effect if you don't have ALL the info, so for now, everytime you try to predict future you'd have to include that factor too

Okay, so I went a bit further and changed the font to Wingdings2. I got a picture of a square with an X in it, followed by two trash cans, then an open hand, then an oddly shaped pair of joined letters "ET" and finally a hand pointing to the right. What do you think that might mean?
