art bell ▲ ● ▼		With what now may be a decade-long tradition, I'm not sure.
		But every year, as we approach the new year, we set aside a couple of days in which you and only you get to do.
		I mean, you know, we have professional predictors and psychics on the program all the time, and they make their best shots, but, well, I have a lot of faith in all of you out there.
		And as I began doing last year, I'm going to again this year ask that you not just dial your phone so you can get out on the air and talk.
		What we want here are well-thought-out, considered predictions made by you.
		Now, I want you to go down into your best psychic self, your inner self, and pull out a prediction, something you think is going to come true in the year 2005.
		There will be two opportunities to do this, one occurring tonight, so if you don't get in, do not despair, because on December 31st, I'll be back to do the second half of this program.
		It is, nevertheless, your opportunity to register your prediction, have it numbered, recorded, and saved in the Bell Family Vault, where we save predictions of this kind, and I have in my hand, fresh from the vault.
		You can even smell a little vault, sort of, you know, musty, it was a year in the vault sort of smell there.
		Anyway, I've got them, and we're going to be going through.
		We made, let's see how many predictions.
		We made, my God, we made 104 predictions last year, and we're going to review them.
		Now, making a specific prediction for a year is tough stuff.
		It's not easy, so we'll review how the audience did last year.
		And in the interest of this year, please, again, go into your inner psychic self and give us your best shot.
		Don't just dial the phone.
		Do it.
		The rules are one per customer only.
		Only on-air predictions will be recorded.
		Ones that you can all hear and record along with me if you so desire.
		No email predictions.
		I won't take them.
		I mean, you can make them, but they don't get a number.
		They don't get assigned.
		They don't get recorded.
		So only on-air predictions, period.
		And once again, it becomes, you know, after the 31st filed away in the Bell Family Vault.
		And we will review and possibly embarrass you with your wrong prediction next year.
		Or a few of them.
		I mean, well, let me, before we go to break and then we begin predictions, let me review a few predictions made by you, all of you, for the year 2004.
		And you did this last year.
		One, that the face on Mars would be proven false.
		Now, I don't know how to record that.
		Proven false.
		There have been photographs.
		I'm tempted to give it a ding.
		There have been photographs that...
		No, I'll bonk it.
		I guess I'll bonk it.
		It's just not affirmatively answered one way or the other yet.
		Two, North Korea detonates the first nuclear weapon.
		Well, you know what?
		We thought they...
		That's almost...
		I mean, they did.
		Something sure as hell detonated in North Korea, didn't it?
		We're not really sure.
		Number three, art comes back full-time.
		Definite bonk.
		I didn't.
		And join my weekend slot, by the way.
		I'm honored and privileged to be here with you over the weekend.
		Number four, the Pope passes away at Lent.
		Bonk.
		He has defied continued predictions made of his demise for an incredible amount of time.
		Incredible.
		Number five, it is a year of contact.
		Well, another bonk, I think.
		Now, there's always arguments about this stuff, but I've got to rate it.
		Number six, mass media uncovers ancient civilization.
unidentified		Well, did they?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Not a major one that I'm aware of.
		I'm going to tentatively bonk that.
		I'll probably get in trouble for that.
		Number seven, Bin Laden captured Bonk.
		Definitely not.
		Number eight, Coast Coast, AM, is noted by the mass media.
		Ha ha.
		Ding, ding, ding, ding.
		ABC came and did a special that's going to be airing, I believe, in February.
		So that's a big ding.
		ABC is definitely the mass media, and so definitely noted, and that was filmed this year, so ding, ding, ding.
		Number nine, MIDI spins out of control.
		That's a ding, but that wasn't a hard call either.
		But a ding, nevertheless.
		It's always out of control.
		Number 10, the Brits get great photos of Mars artifacts.
		I think that's a bonk.
		I don't know what the Brits have come up with.
		Number 11, superhumans revealed.
		I haven't seen any.
		So thankfully, I guess that's a bonk.
		Number 12, Saddam murdered.
		Ooh, big bonk.
		Number 13 is protected very well.
		Number 13, dual currency occurs.
		Domestic and foreign currency.
unidentified		Oh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, I think That's a ding.
		I think we have done that, haven't we?
		I'm going to tentatively ding that.
		I can see I'm going to have a lot to answer for here.
		Number 14, harp disturbs the ionosphere.
		I am personally going to give that a ding, ding, ding, ding.
		I think they are.
		They certainly are transmitting, and the ionosphere is certainly disturbed.
		So yell at me for that if you want.
		I'm dinging it anyway.
		Number 15, China makes it to the moon.
		I don't think so.
		That's bonk.
		You'll let me know if I'm wrong here, right?
		Number 16.
		A televised capture.
		Oh, no, execution of bin Laden.
		No, bonk, definitely.
		Bonk.
		As far as we know.
		Number 17.
		A nuclear explosion or a sized explosion in the north.
		Oh, you know what?
		Ding, ding, ding, ding.
		That's an interesting call that person made.
		A nuclear explosion or sized explosion makes that a ding because it was certainly nearly nuclear-sized, wasn't it?
		That's a ding.
		Number 18, Saddam assassinated.
		Again, a bonk.
		Number 19 will blow you away.
		Number 19 is the Red Sox win the World Series.
unidentified		[background noise]
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, that was, now there's a call.
		Number 19 is our real call.
		The Red Sox win.
		Somebody whacked that one big time.
		Knocked that one right out of the park.
		In a moment, as we continue to review the predictions made for 2004.
		Not bad, you know, not bad so far.
		We will open the lines in a moment and begin predictions, thought-out, carefully examined psychic center-type predictions by all of you.
		Stay right there.
unidentified		Stay right there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Tell you what, if you're number 19, the Red Sox predictor, then that was a job for you.
		Somebody named Fongaboo, nobody is named Fongaboo, in Albany, New York says, hey, Art, they did find an ancient civilization a month ago.
		It was an island of hobbit-sized people that existed thousands of years ago.
		So I guess I will have to give the ancient civilization number six a ding.
		There you have it.
		All right.
		You know, the record is not bad so far.
		All right.
		Now, listen, it is my psychic knowing that if you call me tonight using a cell phone or a speakerphone, your prediction is less likely to come true.
		Now, that's just my psychic insight, and I could be wrong about that, but if I were you, when I call, I would use a corded phone if you want to be sure.
		First time caller line, you are on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Yes, Art.
unidentified		How are you doing tonight?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm Ouke, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Who are you and where?
unidentified		My name is Nick, and I'm calling from Las Cruces, New Mexico.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, Nick, if you do make a prediction, you will have the honor of being number one for the year 2005.
unidentified		Oh, that's wonderful.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, maybe.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Have you thought this over carefully?
unidentified		Yes, I have.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What do you see coming?
unidentified		I see that we will put an additional 100,000 troops into Iraq.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, God.
unidentified		And their responsibility will ostensibly be to guard the borders.
unidentified		But it's a precursor to an additional aggressive move on our part.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, I hate to think that you might be right, but God, you might be right.
		100,000 more troops to Iraq.
		That's not the kind of first prediction I expected, and it worries the hell out of me.
unidentified		Yeah, well, it worries me too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That would be one big escalation, wouldn't it?
unidentified		It's something I've been thinking about for a long time, and I feel very strongly that that could happen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Certainly possible.
unidentified		I had one additional one if you knew.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, no.
unidentified		Nope, that's it.
unidentified		One new.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sure, the one per customer rule.
unidentified		Well, Art, it's great talking to you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Appreciate the call, sir, and have a good morning.
		All right.
		Number one, then, is recorded as 100,000 more troops to Iraq.
		That could come true.
		That really could come true.
		And he said to guard the borders, maybe.
		I mean, I don't know how much stability and security the Iraqi government is going to have and how soon they're going to have it, but what have they got on their borders?
		Well, for one thing, Iran.
		And vacuums tend to be filled by power.
		And Iran is a power that would just love to fill up Iraq, and so we might end up guarding their borders.
		And that's an eerie, could-be-true prediction.
		Wildcard line, you're on the air.
		Welcome.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
		I'd like to make a prediction.
		And my prediction coming out from Tennessee.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, hold on.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What is your first name, please?
unidentified		My name is Casey, and I'm calling from the Chattanooga area in Tennessee.
unidentified		Excellent.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		XM Radio.
		All right.
		Yes, the Ask channel is where we're found.
		I think it's 165 or something, isn't it?
unidentified		165 is it.
		It's a tremendous broadcast because it immediately repeats at 5 a.m. and runs all the way through.
		So you can hear what parts you missed if you need to.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, way to go.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		Very convenient.
		All right, here's my prediction for 2005.
		I want to predict that 2005 is the final exam for humans and that we'll find a new, totally renewable energy source that produces hydrogen from water with no energy input.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wait a minute.
		Final exam for humans.
		Now, are you sliding in two predictions here on me?
		No.
		Explain to me what do you mean by final exam for humans?
unidentified		Well, I just think that ever since the election of 2000, we've kind of been going through just an escalation and that there's going to have to be something break for the good or something break for the bad.
		And I just think that if it's going to break for the good, then it's going to be finding an alternative energy source and putting it to good use for the good of mankind.
		Or we're going to not do that, suppress it, and just call more soldiers into it, an escalating scenario in the Middle East.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you said suppress it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So is it really your view, then, that it's already been discovered, that free energy already exists, and that the poor inventors of all of these black boxes we hear about are scuttled, bought out, shelved, or killed?
unidentified		I'll tell you what, Art, I don't think it's a matter of an invention being scuttled or whatnot.
		I'm sure that's happened.
		I'm not going to go into all that, but I'm just saying that there are new hydrogen technologies now involving plasma that's very much like a light turn on and off.
		And then there's also other types of inventions where water is combined with metal and will release hydrogen with no energy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, sir.
		I appreciate the call.
		But if you listened carefully last night to the program, you heard the physicist say that hydrogen by itself is not, we shouldn't try to think of it as a free energy.
		It's a way to distribute energy, but it takes energy to create it, to make the hydrogen, and then to store the hydrogen, and then to distribute the hydrogen.
		So it's not really to be thought of as a free energy source, although it may help.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Okay, also have, well, I'm Charles and Kawai.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		On the island of Kawaii, how are you doing, Charles?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Very well.
unidentified		It's always nice here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		See, that's what I've heard.
		I mean, nice to the point where it can actually get boring occasionally.
		I mean, don't you occasionally wish you could see snow?
unidentified		Yeah, maybe a little bit.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And see, there you are.
		I mean, it's just beautiful all the time.
		It's almost beautiful to the ridiculous point.
unidentified		Oh, it's nice to escape, though, but okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Anyway, you no doubt have a prediction from the islands.
unidentified		Yes, it is that I too believe that there'll be a free energy source released to the public.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, you do?
unidentified		Yeah, my...
		There's no such thing as something for nothing.
		Well, my free energy source makes refrigeration at the same time it makes electricity.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you have a free energy source.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you're really telling me your invention is going to be discovered and free the world.
unidentified		Yeah, it isn't a legitimate prediction because I have to get out to the public, but yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So the only thing stopping your prediction from coming true is the media discovering you.
unidentified		Yeah, and the fabrication company making it, it's in their technological interest, but at the same time it has low priority and I can't get them to...
		I don't know.
		Maybe they're doing the thing of having an invention on the shelf instead of paying me for it.
		They're just not paying me and not developing it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Well, listen, good luck with the media.
		And sorry to hear that.
		Typical story.
		You know, all the free energy stuff is always suppressed or bought and put up on the shelf or, I don't know, something happens to it, right?
		And it never quite makes it out.
		And I know there are a lot of people who believe that.
		I happen to be a person who believes that if there really was the free lunch or even the cheap lunch, I'm willing to settle for not necessarily free energy, but much more power out than power in in some way.
		A first-time caller line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
		Hello, Art.
		This is Jeff from Al Coloma.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Jeff, okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You already know, Jeff, that your prediction is less likely now to become true because you're on a cell phone, but okay.
unidentified		Oh, I know that.
unidentified		It's just convenient because I'm in my bed.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're calling me from bed.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, I guess it happens.
unidentified		Well, that's when I listen.
unidentified		I put my headphones on and I stay awake.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's a testament, I guess.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		I'm listening from KFI.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yes.
unidentified		So anyways, do you want to hear my prediction before you put me on?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		See, there's something you don't get.
		You've been on the air the whole time.
		I don't screen my calls, buddy.
		You're on the air now.
unidentified		Oh, I apologize.
unidentified		I thought you'd be able to see.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There's nothing to apologize for.
		You're in bed.
		I mean, fortunately, you didn't tell us more, but.
unidentified		Trust me, I'm alone.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right, man.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What it's going to be.
unidentified		Okay, my prediction is that the movie White Noise will be a big success, and one of your very astute technical listeners will take the information that you've made available on Halloween and perfect that machine, and we will be able to communicate with the deadly readily at our demand.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That is a sneaky way to get more than one prediction in.
		I'm only taking the white noise.
		White noise, thank you, is a looks to be.
		I've seen the trailer, and it looks like it's going to be our kind of movie.
		I mean, really.
		White noise is about EVP.
		electronic voice phenomena white noise is how do i explain white noise to you white noise is That's easy.
		I think I can demonstrate it.
		You hear that?
		That's white noise.
		And it's easier to demonstrate than it is to sort of instruct you in what it is.
		And this movie called White Noise is all about the voice of the dead coming to somebody electronically in some manner.
		And It's going to be a fascinating movie.
		And yes, what I played on Halloween wasn't just some cheap Halloween trick.
		It was the work of George Meek.
		Incredible work of George Meek.
		My God, that was hard to listen to.
		I understand.
		But you know what?
		I'm very thankful that so many of you out there understood the importance of what you were hearing.
		I mean, I didn't take an hour and 20 minutes of national radio time to do something that was hard, that hard to hear without understanding the significance of what I was playing.
		And obviously, many of you did as well.
		It was an amazing moment in radio in a lot of ways.
		Proud to have been part of it.
		First time, Caller Line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Is this Art Bell?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It is.
unidentified		Wow, Mr. Bell.
unidentified		What an honor and a privilege it is to speak with you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What is your first name?
unidentified		My first name is Bert.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Say that again?
unidentified		Bert.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, Bert.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, okay, Bert.
unidentified		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Listen, Bert, we're at a break point, so we'll hang everybody, and I'll put you on hold, and after the break, you can give us your prediction, all right?
unidentified		All right, thanks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, hang on.
unidentified		You get a shiver in the dark, it's raining in the park.
		Meantime, time of the river, you're stopping your hole.
		Everything is going mixing, double fall time.
		Feel alright when you hear the music break Well, now you step inside, but you don't see too many things coming in out of the rain.
		They hear the chairs go down Competition in other places The

art bell ▲ ● ▼		This is the annual prediction show for the upcoming year, in this case, 2005, something you think will occur in 2005.
		Remember now, don't just shoot from the hip when making predictions.
		We want a high score.
		Getting a high score depends on you really consulting with your inner self before making this prediction.
		These are not things that you want to happen, or things you hope will happen, or little jokes you want to make by predicting something politically that would be unsavory that you might want to happen.
		These are down from your inner psychic self, things that you really think will be a bingo and a hit in 2005.
		We will continue with Burt's in a moment.
unidentified		Burt's in a moment.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's our opportunity to test the psychic IQ of the audience, and Bert, you're back on the air again.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, Bert, this is it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You have a prediction for 2025, right?
unidentified		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What do you think is going to happen?
unidentified		I predict that we're going to witness an unprecedented amount of solar flare activity sometime around late June, early July, and with it, a summer's heat wave breaking all previously recorded temperatures, especially on the East Coast and parts of Europe.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I you know what?
		I think you've made a really good prediction, and I would like to second it.
		How about that?
		Really?
		Yeah, I would like to second it.
		I think that that is a likely time for the solar flares to get really hot.
		I also think that we have a recent history of having the hottest this and the hottest that in however many years.
		So I think you've got a really good shot, and I kind of feel the same thing myself.
		So I'll join you in this prediction, which is going to be number five.
unidentified		Great.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		We'll see what happens, right?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, buddy.
		Take care.
		We sure will.
		And I think that's very likely.
		Very likely.
		So, there you have it.
		Number five.
		We'll see what happens.
		Wildcard line, you're on the prediction show for 2005, hi.
unidentified		All right.
		Hi, Doug.
		Looking on 680 at Mock Hale in Boston.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		Yeah, my prediction for the coming year.
unidentified		And I know a Republican, you might have thoughts of this, but I imagine that in Ohio, the election will be reversed by a judge when they find that the voting machines were tainted with.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, now, all right, fine.
		You and I need to have a little talk.
		I mean, is this really a prediction or is this a hope plus a way to say what you think happened?
		I mean, tell me the truth.
		See, it's really, it's really not a prediction.
		This is a perfect example of what I was talking about a minute ago.
		Now, you've said what you're going to say, so you said it.
		I mean, you got it out, but I'm not going to take it as a prediction because the tone of your voice told me immediately that, well, this is something I wanted to say, and this is something I hope happens, or whatever.
		But it's not a psychic-center prediction.
		It's more of a political opinion and a hope.
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		I'd like to make a prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		Predict that next year that the Pope will die and we'll have a black Pope.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Pope will die.
		We get this every year.
		And he has hung in there year after year after year after year and defied many predictions like yours.
		Why do you think this will be the year?
unidentified		I don't know.
		He's just getting older.
		I just don't see him living that much longer.
		His health is getting worse.
		And, like, everybody's...
		Everyone's running the church for him.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		He's pretty frail, all right.
unidentified		Yeah, I just don't see his health being able to hold out that much longer.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And then you say following the death of the Pope, there will be a black pope.
unidentified		Yep.
		I think that the church is trying to promote, you know, different kinds of people.
		Like, not all white popes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Your prediction has been so recorded.
		Number six.
		Thank you very much, sir, and have a good morning.
		West of the Rockies, you are on the air.
		Hello?
unidentified		Yes, my name is Richard.
unidentified		I'm calling from Oregon.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, Richard.
unidentified		Yes, and my prediction is that Dick Cheney will resign in the next four years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, before the end of the Bush administration, huh?
unidentified		Yeah, that's what I meant.
		Uh-huh.
		Sort of, in essence, a G. Gordon-Leddy type of fiasco.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, you mean it's not a simple resignation.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's a resignation under extreme pressure.
unidentified		Yes, to protect the powers that be.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		alright now you see I'm going to Is this really a prediction of yours from your psychic centers, or is this something more of a political statement you wanted to make?
unidentified		No, I'm non-political.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, you are?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Possibly even pro-Bush, huh?
unidentified		No, no, no.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, no, no, no.
unidentified		More or less, I've been a libertarian most of my voting.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'm going to put you down as number seven, but I have great doubts.
		I will nevertheless take your word for it.
		You didn't sound too apolitical to me.
		International line, you're on the air.
		Good morning.
		Where are you calling from, please?
unidentified		I'm calling from Sarnia, Ontario.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, welcome.
unidentified		I just want to say it's an honor, Mr. Bell.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And it's an honor to have you.
unidentified		What I see is a major terrorist attack against the United States and Canada sometime in April 2005.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it's overdue, isn't it?
unidentified		What I see is simultaneous and coordinated attack on five or more major cities using fully automatic weapons.
		I think there will be five to ten terrorists per city.
		It'll be during early morning rushover.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And it'll be simultaneous both in Canada and the U.S.?
unidentified		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You don't know more about this.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, you sound awfully sure of yourself.
unidentified		Well, to tell you the truth, I've just dreamt it a few times, but the dreams are so vivid and real and unlike any other dreams I've had.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, on that basis, you bet I will accept it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It goes down as number eight.
unidentified		I want to say April, because in my dream, I get a call from my wife, and she tells me about this, and in my dream, I'm like, no, this is an April Fool's joke.
		It's April Fool's.
		But in the background, my kids are on an Easter egg hunt.
		And I realize Easter and April Fool's aren't the same date, but that's how dreams are.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, listen, you could teach some of the remote viewers out there a thing or two.
		They can't seem to nail it down.
		Thank you very much.
unidentified		You're welcome, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		All right, so there it is.
		A major terrorist.
		Well, certainly it's overdue.
		And, you know, I've wondered how to look at all of this, the fact that nothing else has happened major since September 11th, since 9-11.
		And you can look at it many ways.
		One would be that it's being interdicted.
		It's being stopped by those charged with stopping this kind of awful thing, and they are succeeding.
		We would hope that might be true because they don't advertise their successes.
		You know, the poor CIA and other lettered agencies only get remembered pretty much for their failures because their successes are never counted.
		First time caller line, you're on the air.
		Hello?
unidentified		Hello, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, hi.
unidentified		Got a stock pick for you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I beg pardon?
		I got a stock pick for you.
		A stock pick.
		Yes.
		All right.
unidentified		It's IAUS.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		IAUS.
unidentified		Yeah, I think it's going to be the best stock of the year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you making this an official prediction?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What is IAUS?
unidentified		Everybody's been talking about renewable energy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		And that's what they're going to be doing is like a bladeless turbine from solar.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you involved in any way with this company?
unidentified		No.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're just a fan of the technology?
unidentified		I am.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You are?
		I am.
		Well, see, already then, that makes me a little suspicious that, A, you're promoting a stock on here, and B, it's more of a hope than it is an actual inspired prediction.
unidentified		Well, that's what I think is going to happen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		All right.
		Thank you very much.
		All right.
		That is another.
		You know what?
		I'm erasing that.
		Why?
		Because it was exactly what I said it just was, and it was not an inspired prediction.
		Now, please, folks, I know you all have certain political leanings and things you would like to see happen.
		Don't use this forum and ruin our otherwise stellar performance numbers with predictions that aren't really predictions.
		I mean, they're political statements, they're hopes, but these are not things that have come from your real psychic center.
		They're coming from your more shallow political shell.
		First time color line, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello?
unidentified		Is this Art Bell, Show?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, well, this is Art Bell.
unidentified		Oh, this is Art Bell?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, and Coast to Coast A.M. Would you like to make a prediction?
unidentified		Yes, I would, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's why you're here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Go ahead, sir.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		I predict the United States will be in bondage by Al-Qaeda for the year is out, or 2005 is out.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did you say the U.S. in bondage by Al-Qaeda?
unidentified		If we don't change our ways and do what we should have done, should have been doing all along.
		You know, we're religious, lying, cheating, stealing, hating, drunken, queer nation, worse than Sodom and Gomorrah ever thought of being.
		And if we don't start praying for the devil within the mind, we will be in bondage before the year is out.
		I was told this by Jesus Christ himself, but nobody believes he can talk.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Okay, well, I'm not here to doubt.
		So based on that, it sounded like a sort of a, I don't know, religious conviction, I guess, in his case, if he heard it directly from Jesus.
		U.S. in bondage by Al-Qaeda.
		You know, I don't think that's very likely to happen.
		I don't think you're going to have to worry about that one.
		In fact, I'm not sure of how much of Al-Qaeda is really left.
		I could be surprised.
		We could all be surprised.
		But I've had quite a number of guests recently who have said that we have really overestimated Al-Qaeda, and particularly in view of how we've kind of mopped them up in Afghanistan.
		But, you know, all of that could turn out to be totally wrong.
		First time caller line, you're on the air.
		Hello.
		Hello.
		Going once, going twice, going.
		Wildcard line, you're on the air.
		Good morning.
unidentified		Good morning.
unidentified		How are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Fine.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Turn your radio off, please.
unidentified		Got it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, what is your first name?
unidentified		Gary.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Gary?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And where are you?
unidentified		Memphis, Tennessee.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And is this a legitimate, inspired prediction you're about to make?
unidentified		I believe so, yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
		All right.
		What is it?
unidentified		Okay, well, let me preface it by saying earlier this summer there were two major media stories in favor of the idea of Sunday as legislation, Sunday laws, by Time magazine and National Public Radio.
		My prediction is in 2005 that will continue and increase, sir.
		There will be more and more public outcries in the public forum for Sunday legislation, fulfilling a prophecy in the great controversy, a book from 1888 by Ellen G. White.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sunday legislation.
unidentified		Yeah, the Pope in 1998, Deus Domine, a letter called Deus Domini, made a global call for Sunday legislation by the civil governments.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Which means what?
unidentified		The government gets involved in religion, brings down the wall of separation between church and state, and legislates a day of rest and worship by the government, and it's all part of prophecy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy, do I think that's unlikely.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But, hey, just write them down.
unidentified		Well, I'm not saying it's going to be legislated in 2005.
		I'm just saying that chatter will increase.
		Hmm.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		I'll put that down.
		Chatter increases.
		That'll be easier to ding it, I suppose.
		I think it's very unlikely.
		We've been going in exactly the other direction in this country and keeping that wall up very tight indeed.
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Top of the morning.
unidentified		Hey, Mart, it's Jim.
unidentified		I'm calling from Reading, W-E-E-U-A-M.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		And I would love to see Philadelphia and Pittsburgh in the Super Bowl, but that's just a hope.
unidentified		But my prediction is I see the passing away of Johnny Carson this year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yes, I do.
		Haven't heard from him.
		Haven't seen him.
		That's my prediction.
		Johnny Carson is out of year in 2005.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but you know what?
		Johnny really retired.
		I mean, he really disappeared.
		He just really went, he really did it.
		He said, that's it.
		And he has not, you know, he would have had a million opportunities to be public if he wanted to, and he hasn't.
		So you're not just saying this because you haven't seen much of him, are you?
unidentified		No, no.
		I just really, it's either him or Ed McMahon, but I really get a sense that Johnny Carson is not long for this world.
		He's going to lead the way.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I hope you're wrong.
unidentified		I do too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Well, no, let me, one more.
		How does this come to you?
		As a matter of curiosity, I should really ask that more and more.
		Where did this come from?
		Did it just sort of roll into your mind at some point, or how did you divine this?
unidentified		It just rolled into my mind.
		I was watching the or listening to the radio actually and heard an advertisement, you know, and it was a combination of watching television and listening to radio.
		And I just saw that, you know, he was not going to be around this year, no, this coming year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Totally accepted, and now recorded as number 11.
		Thank you.
		Thank you.
		Take care.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Top of the morning.
unidentified		How are you doing, Arkbel?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm fine.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Turn your radio off.
unidentified		Okay.
		This is Suleiman.
		I'm calling from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, well, welcome.
unidentified		I'm an American, though.
unidentified		I'm from Los Angeles.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		And I had a chance on November the 1st to talk with George Nouri when he was doing some predictions, and I was 100% accurate at that particular time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You were?
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		And in regards to President Bush being re-elected, Colin Powell resigning, Connolly's Rice being appointed to replace and Yasa Arafat to dine, and they'll find out that he was actually murdered.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You predicted all of that?
unidentified		Yes, I did.
unidentified		And as a matter of fact, I had also predicted the 9-11, and Tom, who works with George Nuri, contacted the appropriate people at NBC who were there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now, wait a minute.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You didn't predict 9-11 on this program.
unidentified		I predicted 9-11.
		No, not in your program.
		Right.
		But I predicted 9-11 and Tom that...
		I sent two correspondences to Bush via Camp David.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Bush.
		Who else?
		I mean, anybody else?
unidentified		Oh, yeah.
		David, there's a gentleman by the name of David Bacar that works at NBC at the National News Desk in Burbank, California.
		And Tom on the George Nuri show had contacted David Bacar.
		And NBC staff there informed Tom that I did call NBC on September the 10th, 2001, to discuss our initiated warning in regards to what was going to transpire the next day.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All of that's said.
		Fine.
		What I want from you now is that this program, I only take one prediction, so give me your A-list.
unidentified		Okay.
		What's going to happen is that shortly after the inauguration in January, Israel is going to initiate a massive airstrike against all of the nuclear facilities in Iran.
		And that is going to trigger the nuclear war in the Middle East.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, my God.
		Israel hits Iran, new facility.
		And then war.
unidentified		And total war and total destruction of the Middle East with Russia and China becoming involved and attacking Israel.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy, I asked for your best.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You gave me a doozy.
unidentified		I gave you a good one.
unidentified		And listen, Art, God bless you, you and your family, throughout the 205 and continue with your good work.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I thank you for the call.
		Take care.
		Well, that's quite a prediction, all right.
		And based on his record, if you want to believe that, or maybe some of you heard it, that's definitely something to worry about.
		Israel hits Iran, hits a nuke facility, and that begins a war that becomes Mideast-wise, wide, rather, with a great deal of it being destroyed.
		All right, predictions are our business this night.
		I'm Art Bell.
		Stay right where you are.
		And this, of course, is boomba, right?
		Against the news that they may cancel, I'm hearing the rumors they may cancel my favorite program, Dead Like Me.
		It can't be.
		Better not be.
		And if it is HBO, go get it.
unidentified		I will move my heart.
		Can you hear my heartbeat?
		Baby, when you need a smile, there's no shadow, there's no way you can come to me.
		Baby, you'll see.
		Now you're pretty, baby.
		Who's gonna love you tonight?
		Who's gonna love you, baby?
		My heart.
		Who's always there to be?
		Who's gonna love you, love you?
		Who's gonna love you?
		Who's gonna love you, love you, love you, love you.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		It is, and in order to preserve the psychic integrity of the predictions made for 2005, I'm clamping down this year.
		So you better not call me up with a political wish or, you know, it's like somebody calling up to just take advantage of my predictions to say, that corrupt bush is finally going to be, you know, that kind of thing.
		No, I'm not going to write that down because those are, on the other hand, if you say I was lying in bed And it just rolled into my brain that the president will resign under duress or something like that.
		Fine.
		Then at least it's coming from your psychic core.
		But these other things, I'm not writing them down.
		And I can tell when it's a real thing and when it's just you trying to make some political statement on the radio.
		So with that in mind, dial carefully.
		Once again, we return to all of you and what you believe is going to occur in the year 2005.
		First time caller line, you are on the air.
		Hi.
unidentified		Hi, how are you doing?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Quite well, sir.
		Welcome to the program.
		What's your first name?
unidentified		Andy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Andy, where are you?
unidentified		I'm in Canada.
unidentified		I'm in British Columbia, Canada.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, all the way up there.
unidentified		I'm in the north part of it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Getting cold?
unidentified		It's a small town.
unidentified		They'll know who I am if I say where.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's all right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is it getting cold up there?
unidentified		Yeah, it's freezing.
unidentified		It's had some ice showers.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yesterday.
unidentified		What the wind?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Ice showers?
unidentified		Yeah, well, I'm up really north, they're up past the panhandle.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is that where actual ice falls from the sky?
unidentified		No.
		No.
		Well, I'm not sure.
		There was sort of a rain falling, and the wind was turning it into ice on the trees, and you could just hear it tinkling like crystals.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I remember that, yes.
		Okay.
		Well, you're going to be number 13, which some would consider very unlucky.
		But, on the other hand, let's make a winner out of it.
		What have you got?
unidentified		Well, I believe the people of Canada are going to rally to, and strangely enough, rally to become part of the United States en masse.
unidentified		En masse.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let's see.
unidentified		Well, because of something else that happens, but that's another prediction, so I can't do that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I won't call it a prediction, but I will listen to what you have to say because I'm interested.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, Canadians seem rather nationalistic, frankly.
unidentified		Yeah, so it's strange.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		To have them rising up to join the U.S. is what would it take to do that?
unidentified		Well, I think each of us is going to be attacked, and the United States is pretty much going to help themselves, and we don't have any help for ourselves, so we're going to sort of feel like we need that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The security of being part of the U.S. is right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I see.
unidentified		Not that I want to, but that's just a prediction, right?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, well, yes, sir, absolutely.
unidentified		Things can change overnight.
unidentified		Like, you know, people's thinking can change overnight, you know, like something like big, you know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you think it's going to be some sort of terrorist action affecting so many that, okay, I've got it.
		All right.
		All right, sir.
		Thank you very much for the call.
		Quite a prediction, eh?
		Canadian people rise up as one to join the U.S. Well, you know, there's been a lot of talk about the Western provinces of Canada perhaps petitioning to become part of the U.S. I don't know how that would go.
		It's sort of one of those things you just hear about every so often.
		Just kind of like every year up in Alaska.
		I don't know whether you know I lived in Alaska, and every year in Alaska they circulate a petition to secede from the rest of the country.
		It gets signed by a lot of people, and it's a big deal every year.
		I suppose they're still doing it.
		Wildcard line, you're on the air.
		Hello?
unidentified		Yes, sir.
		This is John.
		I'm a truck driver on I-80 West.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, John.
		Just moving along out there.
		All right.
		We keep you guys a lot of company.
		Are you receiving us on radio or XM?
unidentified		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		XM or radio?
unidentified		XM radio.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		XM radio.
		All right.
		Very good.
		It's been a real boon for those who do a lot of driving.
		Okay, number 14 is what it's going to be, if you have one.
unidentified		Yes, sir.
		I don't know why this came to me, but the reason I'm calling is because it never happens.
		A cure for Parkinson's disease, there's going to be a major breakthrough in stem cell research.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
unidentified		And I strongly believe that.
unidentified		And I know it's going to be next year, either between May or September.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wow.
		That's a positive one for a change.
		Most predictions people make are rather negative, but a cure for Parkinson's from stem cells really would be wonderful, wouldn't it?
		Yes, sir.
		I very much appreciate your prediction and the thoughtfulness of it.
		That's exactly the kind of thing I want.
		And it obviously came from some sort of psychic center this gentleman has.
		A cure for Parkinson's.
		Indeed, they could be close.
		With stem cell research, we're going to be closing in on a lot of things we thought never possible previously.
		East of the Rockies, you are on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Good morning, Art.
		This is Bob.
		I'm calling from Charlotte Way, Michigan.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yes, Bob.
unidentified		Hi, I'm listening to you on AM580, WTCM, Traverse City, Michigan.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		And my 2005 prediction is that the Bush administration will begin marketing the national ID card through Patriot Act II.
		They're going to sell it to us based on fare tax, border protection.
		And that's my prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's rough.
		Well, it's a possibility.
		I mean, everybody has to imagine it's possible.
		If there is another major terrorist attack, we will further tighten things as we did in response to 9-11.
		And if they did come out with a national ID card, would you accept it?
		Would you reject it?
		Would you what?
unidentified		Well, I think it's just the first step to the mark.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And they've already seen it.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		And they've already promoted it in Britain as an idea.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, I'm not sure that I'm totally opposed to the idea.
		let me think about it i i i i'm not necessarily I understand what the scariness is for you as it progresses toward what you see as a mark of the beast, but at some point a national identification card may be necessary.
		It may be necessary.
		I don't know.
		Would it be that horrible?
		It would be one more card to carry around.
		We have now drivers' licenses and social security cards and various credit cards and identification licenses of varying sorts and so forth that we have to carry around.
		Would a national ID card be that awful?
		On the other hand, would it help very much?
		Because whatever can be made can be forged, right?
		West of the Rockies, you have reached the air.
		Good morning.
unidentified		Good morning.
unidentified		Artist nice to talk to Eddie San Diego.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Eddie in San Diego, yes.
unidentified		I haven't listened in so long.
		I need to start a 12-step program.
		I wish I had a positive prediction, but I feel that there's going to be a 6.5 earthquake about 30 miles west of Los Angeles.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		In August.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		West of L.A. In August?
		You're going to pin it down, huh?
		Yep.
		So I want to ask you, how did this come to you?
		It is so specific.
		A 6.5 earthquake, West of LA, in August.
		Very specific.
		How did that come to you?
unidentified		I've been dreaming earthquakes for about 15, 20 years now, and I've hit on about probably five of them.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you record what you dream normally?
unidentified		It just kind of amazes me, but as far as recording it, it just kind of, you know, I just know that the dreams are showing me something.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, I've got you, but I would think that after a while, when you begin hitting them, you would want to, I don't know, write it on a piece of paper and mail it to yourself or something.
unidentified		Well, what I do do is I call family members and let them know that I've had another earthquake dream.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		I appreciate it.
		I hope you're wrong.
unidentified		I hope I'm wrong, too.
unidentified		I've got one more question to ask you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		Did you ever work in a city called Oceanside at KUDE?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I absolutely did.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I was the chief engineer there for a period of time, and I also did an on-air show.
unidentified		An on-air show.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Rock and roll.
unidentified		So I'm born June 20th, 1954.
		So I've been listening to your voice.
		First time I heard you, I think I was probably, what, 17, something like that, Clint?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm getting a lot of that lately.
		All right, listen.
		Thank you very much.
unidentified		God bless you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		Yes, I'm sure I do.
		I worked for KUDE.
		I was their chief engineer and set up their audio chain and then got to do a program on the air.
		So there's somebody who's getting a lot of that lately.
		That's when you know you're getting old, right?
		Why, my grandmother listened to you.
		Really?
		International line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
		Good morning, Art.
		How are you today?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Quite well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where are you?
unidentified		I am calling from Toronto, Ontario.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Ah, Toronto.
unidentified		I'd like to wish you a happy Christmas.
		Oh, however they say that.
		Merry Christmas, to say the least.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Listen, before you make your prediction, since you're a Canadian, how much chance do you think there is that Canadian people will rise as one and beg to become U.S. citizens?
unidentified		That'll never happen.
		Let me tell you something about the Canadian population.
		We have a problem rising alone in the city of Toronto.
		Toronto is known as the most international city in the world.
		The number of nationalities we have here is almost obscene, but it's a thing of beauty in itself.
		So there's so much division between the races and the nationalities that there's no form of unity even in one city.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, on the other side of the point, you know what?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The immigration to the west coast of Canada by a lot of Asians has really been a positive thing for Canada.
unidentified		Oh, sure.
		But then you're just talking about British Columbia, right?
		And then you've got Ontario and Quebec.
		Look at this Ontario and Quebec on the provincial level.
		Quebec wanted to leave.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, you're right.
		I know.
		All right, so your prediction.
unidentified		My prediction for the year 2005 is you're going to see a big rise in the designer and private usage of stem cell research and productivity.
		Not so much in the United States, but on the global front.
		You know, they're doing in the University of Toronto, they're doing stem cell research on eyes to, you know, try to bring sight back to the living.
		They found that they transplant cells from one rat's eye into another rat's eye.
		You know, the cell is active, but it's just a matter of stem cell research.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Can you pin it down?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, is what I'm trying to say.
unidentified		Well, I can't say, you know, there'll be more research, but I think you're going to see a lot of private use of it.
		You know, you're going to see that, you know, people are going to want to see better in the dark.
		So they're going to go to another country where they can get cells transferred from, say, an animal's eye into their own eye so they can see better.
		You know, wings could become a popular issue.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I would love wings.
		But I see real problems coming with this.
		I really do.
		You know, with mixing up animals and humans and the genetics and stuff and all that.
unidentified		Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
		You know, you're going to have a big problem, you know, especially with, say, you get the bird flu, right?
		You've got a part of a bird on your back.
		So you know what it got.
		And you've got to trace that down at the border.
		Somebody's slipping in a set of wings on their back.
		Like, how are you going to keep track of that?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's right.
		Plus, you know, unlike birds, you can't poop on cars.
		All right, sir.
		I've got it.
		Thank you very much.
unidentified		Thank you very much.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Have a good year.
		Number 17.
		More private stem cell research.
		That's a little scary.
		Private stem cell research.
		Designer stuff.
		And pretty soon there'll be clinics like tattoo parlors.
		Want wings?
		We're the wing store.
		Want eyes like a duck?
		The eyes like a duck store.
		Yes.
		What an interesting future it's going to be for so many of you.
		First time caller line, you are on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		This is Annie from Northern California.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Annie, you know, it's been all males almost until you, Annie.
unidentified		Yeah, yeah, I'm your first time.
unidentified		Well, listen, my prediction is that Tony Blair is going to have some kind of crisis of consciousness and he's going to withdraw his troops from Iraq.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yes.
		I really feel that.
		I really feel Tony is troubled.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, boy, oh, boy, I'll tell you what, if he did that, it would just crumble a lot of support.
unidentified		It sure would.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know that Tony Blair actually came out and apologized the bad intelligence and bad information that caused the war.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		He actually came out and apologized, you know, in front of all those guys who go, but you think it's now going to lead to a reversal of positions, and he's going to pull together.
unidentified		Yes, I really, really think he's seriously troubled.
unidentified		I really feel it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, but this prediction is somewhat psychically inspired on your part.
unidentified		Oh, absolutely.
unidentified		Absolutely.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		I have to admit, I'm not a Bush supporter, but I really feel this coming from Tony.
unidentified		I've got this consciousness.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, all right.
		I'm allowing it.
		Thank you.
unidentified		Thank you, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I feel like one of these NFL guys coaches zebras, you know, trying to decide about the validity of a certain prediction.
		But, all right.
		Tony Blair finds his conscience, or it finds him, and he withdraws all British troops from Iraq.
		My God.
		First time caller line, you are on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello, this is Scotty from Indiana listening to you on 840WHAS.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yo, Scotty.
unidentified		I have a prediction there's going to be a major earthquake in Southern California, but it's going to hit out in the desert, so it won't do too much damage.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wait a moment.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm out in the desert.
unidentified		Ah, no.
		Southern California, more like a lot farther south than you are.
		As a matter of fact, I used to live in Peru.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did you?
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, we went through one hell of an earthquake in the desert here just a few years ago, 7.3.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It scared the heck out of me.
unidentified		I imagine that would.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, it was 7.3.
		it was a real doozier.
		I mean, everything was going mmm, mmm, mmm.
unidentified		Oh, yeah, I've been out past your place before.
unidentified		I go out there on spring break.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you now?
		Yeah.
		All right.
		Listen, I'm going to put this down.
		A major earthquake in the California desert.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you are recorded as number 19.
unidentified		Okay, thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Thank you very much.
		And take care.
		Well, if you're going to have one, I guess out in the desert where there is not much is a better place.
		Wildcard line, you are on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hello.
unidentified		I have a prediction.
		I've been dreaming about it quite a bit lately, and I don't know why either.
		I'm a truck driver, but anyhow, I predict about anywhere from three to five months before the end of next year.
		They're going to come out with a new technology for computers.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You mean a major leap in the world of computers?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Some newer, much faster chip, or what do you see?
unidentified		Yeah, it's going to be using a crystalline technology.
unidentified		It'll be about anywhere from three to five times faster than anything we have out now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, I discussed this with a couple of guests recently.
		I've been watching the computer revolution go, and we've had this jump pretty much every, what is it, 18 months or something.
		And I've noticed a recent slowdown.
		You know, kind of like, I'm not saying they've hit a wall, but it seems like it's slowed down, and we're not getting quite the rate of progression that we had.
		Have you noticed that?
unidentified		I agree with you totally on that.
unidentified		I mean, it seems like we go from leaps to downs to just crawling like a turtle.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you think that all of a sudden some crystalline substance is going to come forward and we're going to have, I don't know, 10 gig machines or something?
unidentified		Yes, sir, I do.
unidentified		I think it's going to be like a crystalline technology using some type of light or laser integrated into it somehow.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You are recorded officially as number 20.
unidentified		Thank you very much.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you and take care.
		The only problem with that is, and he's probably right.
		I mean, there will be some immense forward step with computer chips.
		You just know it's coming.
		And I'm somebody who, because of business and a home and all the rest of it, I have a very large number of computers.
		So, you know, to see a giant jump occur is in some ways very worrisome because everything you have will suddenly be old stuff from the high deserts.
		In the middle of predictions for 2005, I'm Mark Bell.
unidentified		Hearing you're concerned about my happiness.
		All that thought you'd given me is coins and circuits.
		If I were walking in your shoes, I wouldn't worry about it.
		You and your friends will warn about me, I'm having lots of fun.
		Counting flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at all.
		Playing solitaire so long, with the deck of 51.
		Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.
		Now don't tell me, I've nothing to do.
		Last night I dressed in tails pretending I was on the tail.
		As long as I can.
		We'll be right back.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, in a lot of ways, this is a terrific opportunity for a lot of you.
		I mean, if you make an incredible prediction that just happens to be right on the money, you could be suddenly recognized nationwide.
		I mean, these are recorded and broadcast as you actually make them.
		They're the only ones we're taking.
		Nothing by email.
		No other means is ever allowed.
		Only on-the-air prediction.
		So it really is an opportunity for you to get something right in front of a lot of people.
		Stay right where you are.
		predictions for two thousand five is what we're doing You know, five of the first 19 were dings, meaning you got them right.
		That's astounding.
		Now, I'm sure we're not going to hold that kind of record as we continue on here, but that by itself is astounding.
		Let me review just a few more made for 2004.
		Number 20 was volcano erupts in Yellowstone.
		Not too large, though.
		Well, I think that's definitely a bonk, but you know what?
		There's been an awful lot of talk about what's going on in Yellowstone.
		So it's a bonk with an addendum slight possible ding or something.
		21 is there will be a new space drive system.
		I believe that's a bonk.
		Nothing demonstrated.
		Number 22, bin Laden found.
		Big bonk.
		You can see where people's minds were back then, huh?
		Bin Laden, bin Laden, bin Laden.
		Number 23, something bad happens November 4th.
		So I don't think that anything bad happened then.
		I believe that's a, well, something bad happens every day, but generally a bong.
		Something big within something of an earthquake nature.
		Okay, I think a bong.
		I don't think there has been.
		Number 25, Earth at a crossroads in 2004.
		Well, I don't think I can ding that or bong it.
		It's sort of a...
		So I'm not going to rate that one.
		Number 26, mainstream news reports abductions.
		You know, there'd be a way.
		I could ding that because I know of a program coming up that did record that stuff.
		Major media.
		January, let's see, January, February, terrorism, car bombings begin.
		Thankfully, that is a bonk.
		That has not occurred in the U.S. Number 28, Osama bin Laden caught after the re-election.
		That's a big bonk.
		We don't have Osama.
		In fact, he was a huge debating point in the re-election debates, if you recall.
		Number 29, a huge wave hits California.
		That's a bonk.
		Feel free to correct me on any of these if I get it wrong.
		Number 30, Israel invades Palestine.
		I think, well, that's a ding.
		I mean, there's always some sort of incursion, isn't there?
		Number 31, bad heat wave on West Coast.
		Ding, ding, ding, ding.
		Certainly was that.
		Number 32, Bush-Bin Laden connection revealed.
		Bush-bin Laden connection revealed.
		Well, you know, there were connections with the bin Laden family, of course, who were very big in Saudi Arabia, but I don't know that there was any major new revelation of connections.
		Number 33, there would be a general spiritual awakening.
		That's a subjective call, and I don't really know of one, so I'm going to generally bonk it.
		And number 34, next pope, a controversial.
		I'm going to bong that as well because there is no next pope yet.
		And look at the next one.
		I wasn't going to go on, but look at the next one.
		Number 35.
	Howard Stern's girlfriend gets pregnant.
	Well, unless they meant the serious stock.
	I guess I better not go there.
	I think that's bonk, right?
	Howard didn't do that, did he?
	First time caller line around the air.
	Hello.
unidentified		Hi, this is Rod from Michigan.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yo, Rad.
unidentified		I just wanted to say that Mount St. Helen erupted this year With just a warning, I think that this coming up here, my prediction for 2005, that it's going to erupt with a real strong vengeance.
		I mean, I think it's even going to be stronger.
		I believe it was in 82, stronger from the eruption in 82.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Has it really built a large enough dome to have an explosion bigger than that one?
unidentified		I don't know, but...
unidentified		That's my prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		I appreciate it.
		I've recorded it as number 21, Mount St. Well, it certainly may.
		You know, there are certain days when Mount St. Helens is glowing red, and there's obvious activity going on there, so it could occur.
		And I know I have friends who are in the area, and they watch it very carefully.
		Wildcard line, you're on the air.
		Hi.
unidentified		Hello, I'm Brian from Orange County, California.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Brian.
unidentified		I predict a terrorist attack greater in magnitude than September 11th in the upcoming year.
		I believe that our borders aren't safe, and the government has done nothing to make them safer.
		And we'll realize that our government has spread us too thin globally and that we're going to have to withdraw and do something about this.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is all of this a political opinion, or have you actually sort of seen this occurring in some psychic or knowing manner other than just sort of what you think?
		Okay, not only did I push the button on that guy, but I'm erasing that.
		So he was another one caught.
		You know, if you're going to fake it, you've really got to do very much better than that man did.
		And I'm glad I didn't write it down.
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		Hello?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		Hi, hi, Ari.
		I'm in Florida, but I don't know Cleveland that well.
		But I've had dreams about a nuclear power plant in Cleveland and that there's going to be like a Chernobyl take place in Cleveland on a nuclear power plant.
		It's going to be from vibrations off of jet planes at a nearby airport, of all things.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well.
unidentified		That cause cracks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, really?
unidentified		Yes.
		Isn't that weird?
		I hope they've got a power plant because that's where it's from.
		It's always Cleveland, Ohio, in my dreams.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you believe that vibrations and cracks that have not been detected caused by aircraft and that kind of thing.
unidentified		And it will be actually like a Chernobyl.
unidentified		It's going to be really bad.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That would be really, really bad.
unidentified		All right.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much, and have a good night.
		Now, I wonder, if you look at the predictions made so far, those made for the previous year, like the news in the major media, hardly anything good is predicted, right?
		You ever notice that parallel?
		We're always talking about how the news is always, for the most part, I don't know, 95% negative or something, right?
		So are our predictions.
		It simply may be the nature of people and news.
		Good news is not promulgated, even though it occurs and people note it one way or the other.
		It's not really, I don't know.
		For some reason, it's the bad stuff that captures people's imaginations.
		But you ever wonder about that?
		Why?
		Why just the bad stuff?
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Howdy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What is your first name and where art thou?
unidentified		I'm Miles, and I'm in Wasilla, Alaska.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wasilla, Alaska.
		Excellent.
		Welcome to the program.
		You're on.
unidentified		Okay.
		I've got a prediction.
		I think in 2005 they'll either capture or kill a Sasquatch, and there'll be definite proof, and it'll get a scientific name and be documented.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, Bigfoot discovered.
unidentified		Exactly.
unidentified		I mean, not just a myth anymore, but they'll actually find one.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's a good prediction.
		I think there is a rather large likelihood of that.
		I mean, there have been all kinds of really good photographs lately, you know, of these things in Florida.
		So there really is something out there.
		There sure is something out there, and it's very likely eventually one will get killed or discovered.
unidentified		Exactly.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Unless it's the world of the paranormal.
unidentified		No, it'll be the world of the normal.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And what do you think, since I've got you on the line on the subject, what do you think it will turn out to be?
		Will it be a missing link kind of creature that's managed to hide itself for all these years?
		Or what will it turn out to be?
unidentified		I think it'll be just nothing more than like a large ape that's just real rare.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, but with some human attributes of intelligence, something beyond the general ape?
unidentified		Well, you know, they've got the apes and the monkeys and stuff that are using tools.
unidentified		So, I mean.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's true, but I've still, to have stayed this well hidden for this long, it's got to be pretty bright.
unidentified		Yeah.
		You know, I don't know.
		I think it'll just be a large ape that they've never discovered before.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Saying I don't know is just fine.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much, sir.
unidentified		All righty.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		All right, so there you go.
		It's quite specific.
		Some sort of Bigfoot discovered.
		Well, I think that is quite likely.
		Very, very interesting.
		See, the quality of the predictions is rising almost beyond belief here.
		International line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where are you?
unidentified		In British Columbia, Tremaine here.
unidentified		How are you doing?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just fine, sir.
unidentified		All right.
		I got a nice simple one.
		Okay.
		October 2005.
		Iraq elections delayed second time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What happens?
unidentified		Iraq elections delayed the second time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, sir.
		Okay.
		Iraq elections delayed.
		The second for a second time.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So You think there is no chance at all that they're going to have the elections as presently scheduled?
unidentified		I predict it won't happen until October.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Gotcha.
		Thank you very much.
		And take care.
		All the way from British Columbia.
		Well, that certainly is possible, isn't it?
		They're saying that any election, even if it doesn't manage to get all the people voting because there are areas still held by insurgents, at least it is an election.
		If it's not perfect, it's an election like democracy, which is not perfect.
		So we'll see.
		The schedule is certainly there.
		First-time caller line, you are on the air.
		Hello.
		Hello.
		You would have been on the air, but you're not speaking.
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Good morning.
unidentified		There you are.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hey.
unidentified		Paul from Augusta, Georgia.
		Yes, Paul.
		I don't know if this is exactly a prediction or not, but.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, it's got to be exactly a prediction, actually.
unidentified		Well, it is, but the comet that they're going to send that satellite to and everything, it's going to alter something.
unidentified		I don't know if the repercussions have anything to do with 2005, but they've certainly probably have something to do with everything, especially when they return back to that orb cloud.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How about if I put comet dust bad news?
unidentified		Bumping into other ones and everything.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, we're doing all sorts of things.
		We've got a couple of trajectories that are going to take it right, we're going to smack right into the comet.
		And then I think another is capturing comet debris and bringing it back intact to Earth.
		And there are a lot of people that are, with good reason, concerned about that.
unidentified		Well, you know, the Oort cloud, I mean, going out of the solar system is one thing, but making a loop right there in the Oort cloud and then bumping into each other, that's how they get started anyway on their thing.
unidentified		But did anybody get the orbitation of that Temple 1, this periodic return?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I don't know.
unidentified		That's the only thing I didn't find anything about it or anything.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I can't answer that for you, but as far as your prediction about bad news with regard to comet dust or whatever we'd bring back from a comet, that is quite likely as well.
		I'm sure they'll take every precaution with what they bring back.
		And they also have plans, by the way, to go to Mars and pick some Mars stuff up and bring it back to Earth, too.
		You know, they should think really hard about that.
		And I'm sure they're going to look very carefully at whatever they bring back.
		But I don't know.
		It's concerning.
		I suppose you could argue that things crash and burn to Earth all the time, that within them might carry microorganisms, and so we're at risk anyway.
		And you might have a good point.
		East of the Rockies, you're on air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Yes.
unidentified		I want to predict that a semi-tractor trailer will blow up in a large city.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where?
unidentified		In a large city, like New York or L.A. Are you a semi-tractor trailer driver?
		I am.
		And they're not regulated or inspected enough.
		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, look, let me just come out and ask you a question.
		What do you do?
		Do you drive across one side of the country to the other?
		Do you have a regular route that takes you from one city to the other mostly or what?
unidentified		I have a regular route.
		You have a regular route?
		An assigned route.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Exactly how inspected are you?
unidentified		Well, you go through a, I'll shift that off so I can hear you.
unidentified		You go through a scale house and they just more or less weigh you and send you on through.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
unidentified		There's tractor trailers setting by the hundreds in a truck stops that run at night.
unidentified		Scale houses are closed, never inspected or anything like that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I've frequently wondered about that, sir.
		You know, you go by scales sometimes, frequently at night, and it says closed.
		Is it a random thing?
		Is the idea to be random that they open them for a while, then they close them for a while?
		Do they have a regular schedule?
		What's the deal?
unidentified		It's pretty much during the day when the heavy traffic is going.
		And I think most of it is manpower, too.
		Do they have anybody that can work at night or wants to work nights?
		So I work all night long, and you're out on the road at 2, 3, 4 o'clock in the morning.
		There's not much traffic.
		It'd be ideal situation for anybody to slip into a city.
		And it's kind of scary.
		You get thinking about it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I am thinking about it, and it is scary.
		I drive a 37-foot RV a lot.
		You know, just a recreational vehicle is about 30,000 pounds.
		And I love to drive at night.
		It's my favorite time to drive.
		And when you're out on the highway at 2, 3, 4, 5 in the morning, it's pretty much you and other big vehicles allotted.
		I mean, the trucks are by the zillions out there.
		And what you've just said is a frightening thing to contemplate.
		But on the other hand, if they put up some sort of strict security where they were searching everything all the time and really holding people up, how could we have commerce?
unidentified		Well, you know, now you have Mexican trucks coming in that are not regulated, not checked.
unidentified		You and I both know that Mexico is not the best governing country in the world.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm with you there, but what I asked you is important.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		If we suddenly started to clamp down and there were long lines and it took you hours to get through a line to get carefully inspected, what would that do to you?
unidentified		Oh, I think you're right.
		I think it'd shut commerce down.
		99% of stuff is moved by truck.
		And, boy, you know, and not only the trucks, but even on the rail, the trailers that are on the rail could be the same thing.
		They go right through the big cities every day.
		It'd be, I don't know what kind of explosive you could get on a tractor trailer, but.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A lot.
unidentified		Yeah, yeah.
unidentified		I agree with you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, sir.
		I'm glad you called.
		And this sort of came from your psychic center or are you just doing a numbers game and you know what's going on, so you figure it'll happen?
unidentified		Yeah, I, you know, it's just kind of I see what's going on out there at night, and I don't see the inspections that are needed in control of our borders, and I hope not.
unidentified		I pray it doesn't happen, but it sure could happen easily.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I hate to agree with you, but yes, thank you very much.
unidentified		Thank you, Art.
unidentified		Good talking to you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Have a good night.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, boy.
unidentified		You know, what do we do about that?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I mean, he just laid it on the line for you, and he said, look, it's ridiculous.
		There's no inspections.
		There's nothing going on.
		Or so little that there might as well be none.
		And so that's going to invite tragedy.
		And yet you really can't stop the nation's commerce, cold, because you're worried about what might happen.
		You'd cripple our economy.
		How are we going to win this war?
		How are we ever going to win this war?
		From the high desert in the middle of the night, doing predictions for the coming year, I'm Art Bell.
unidentified		Music Out on the street I was talking to a man who said so much brother's nothing Out on the street
		Be it sight, sound, smell, or touch, the something inside that we need so much.
		The sight of the touch or the scent of the sand, or the strength of an oak leaves deep in the ground.
		The wonder of flowers to be covered and then to burst up through tarmac to the sun again.
		Or to fly to the sun without burning a wing.
		To lie in the meadow and hear the grass sing, all these things in our memories hold the uncomfortable call.

		All we're doing is predicting what the ride's going to be like in 2005.
		We'll get right back to it.
unidentified		Sounds of pain
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'll tell you, that last truck driver who called really got me thinking.
		I mean, how can we ever, even the president kind of stumbled over it at some point with regard to we will win the war on terror.
		How are we really ever going to win that?
		I mean, the truck driver was right.
		Go out at night yourself in the middle of the night.
		If you ever night drive, you'll see it.
		Or during the day, it doesn't really matter.
		24 hours a day, the commerce is going on.
		But at night, I guess it's more noticeable.
		There are not as many four-wheelers, and there's just trucks everywhere.
		Not even a significant portion of them can be reasonably inspected.
		And so when you contemplate all the various ways that one could be tortured and terrorized, that one really pops out in front of you, as he pointed out.
		And how do you ever win a war of that nature?
		It's a tough, tough question.
		First time caller line, you are on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Okay, my prediction has to do with aliens.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Aliens, huh?
		Okay, wait, sir.
		What is your first name?
unidentified		I'm David.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And where are you?
unidentified		In Chicago.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In Chicago.
		And what do you think?
		What about aliens?
unidentified		I believe that my prediction is that aliens are not real.
		That they're really either a werewolf or a vampire.
		And the reason I believe that came to me in a dream.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wait, wait.
		Wait.
		Now, what we're after here is predictions.
		So are you predicting that in the year 2005, aliens will be proven to be not real?
unidentified		Not real, but not that they're not aliens, but they're either like a werewolf-type creature of aliens.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I heard that, but are you predicting all of this will be discovered in 2005?
unidentified		Yes, but this is the reason why I believe it will be.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I don't need the reason.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I just need to know whether you're predicting it will occur in 2005.
unidentified		I predicting it will occur in 2005.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, that's good enough for us.
		Thank you.
		And it could be.
		I mean, it certainly could be.
		I don't think it's very likely.
		Do you?
		It could be.
		I think proving a negative of that sort is going to be very difficult.
		Perhaps finding something that we can't explain, that might occur, but that wouldn't prove that Aliens are not real.
		Nor do I think in 2005 we'll make that determination.
		I shouldn't say one way or the other.
		There could always be a SETI hit.
		Wildcardline, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hi.
		Hello, Art.
		Thank you for taking my call.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're very welcome.
unidentified		My name's Cliff.
unidentified		I'm calling from Odessa, Texas.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I can hear it in your voice, Cliff.
unidentified		Thank you very much.
unidentified		My prediction is sometime, well, I'll say sometime in May of 2005, either the Holland American or the one of the Princess Cruise lines in the Caribbean is going to be blown apart by some small craft with a case mug.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Cruise ship blown up, huh?
unidentified		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, if, let's say a terror group got hold of a small nuclear device, why do you think they would use it on such a controlled, relatively small target for a high-profile weapon like that?
unidentified		Yes, sir.
		I see that.
		Sort of like for the same reason that the old boy drives a truck into the middle of some city and blows it up.
		You've got a lot of people packed into a small space.
		You would have an incredibly high kill ratio.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, probably 100%, sure.
unidentified		And they're very vulnerable.
unidentified		And we don't know where the Al-Qaeda Navy is or what they're doing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The Al-Qaeda Navy?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm not sure they have one.
unidentified		Well, relatively speaking, they know that there's something out there.
unidentified		And I think they know where they're at.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, sir.
		Thank you very much for the call.
		It's recorded as number 28 that cruise ship explodes.
		I think that could be done with less than a nuclear weapon.
		And again, I think, my own personal opinion, that if the terrorists did manage to come up with a nuclear weapon, they would not waste it on a single cruise ship.
		They'd probably try and get it into a city.
		Isn't that fairly obvious?
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hello?
unidentified		Yeah, my name's James.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, James.
unidentified		I predict that in 2005, psychics within the government will be highly instrumental in preventing or averting a major terrorist attack.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, I think it's entirely possible, but if it happened, would we hear about it?
unidentified		Probably not.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Huh.
		So how would we ever confirm your prediction?
		Well, we couldn't, could we?
unidentified		I don't think so.
		But anyways, I was just thinking that that could be, you know, they could be at work at that, or that could be possible.
		I don't know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I couldn't agree more with you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		As a matter of fact, it's my view that, number one, if, as most of the remote viewers that I've had on, if not, in fact, all actually have said that remote viewing absolutely worked for the government, that the hit rate was high, I personally have never bought off on the political embarrassment aspect of why the program would have been canceled.
		In fact, if it worked as advertised, I believe that we would still be using it now.
		Moreover, I believe we are using those talents now.
		Just my own opinion.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
unidentified		This is Todd calling you from Brooklyn, B.C., Canada.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Todd.
unidentified		I have a prediction to make.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I have a prediction to receive.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		Saudi Arabia will fall to Islamic fanatics and will ally itself with Iran and will send Iranian troops onto its shores.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, my Lord.
unidentified		This is what I feel very strongly.
		Like the 9-11 tragedy, I had a dream before that, and a voice told the souls to go to the light in the dream.
		Pre-9-11, the night before.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
unidentified		So this is what I'm feeling, that the tragedies coming to that region, to the Middle East and Saudi Arabia will fall.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that would be more tragic than...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm not sure we would sit back and allow that occur.
unidentified		Oh, you couldn't.
unidentified		I mean, it's, what is it, the second largest oil reserves in the world?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And president after president after president has affirmed that we would go to war to maintain the oil company.
unidentified		I just feel very strongly that this will happen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That we wouldn't stand for blockades and all that kind of thing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Exactly.
unidentified		I see Iranian troops on Saudi Arabian shores by the end of next year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy.
		All right.
		You see some pretty dark things, my friend, but it is recorded as number 30.
unidentified		Okay, thank you, Art.
unidentified		Beth to you and Ramona over the holidays.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care, my friend.
unidentified		Okay, goodbye.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And Merry Christmas.
		I don't toss that around casually.
		And Merry Christmas to you all, I might add, because let me explain to you, we're doing predictions this night, for the remainder of this night, in fact, and then I am off Christmas week.
		And I will be back, and if you do not get your prediction in tonight, you'll have a second opportunity with the December 31st program.
		I will do the other half of the predictions on December 31st.
		So do not despair if you do not get through.
		International line, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello.
		Hi.
		I have a prediction that...
		I'm in Ontario.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Ontario, okay.
unidentified		My name is Clark.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, Clark.
unidentified		Okay, I have a prediction that there will be an act of combat within North America.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Active combat in North America?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wow.
unidentified		And depending on the response, there may be an invasion.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, it's worth asking you, I think, how this came to you.
unidentified		A series of dreams.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A series of dreams.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And do you have a history of your dreams coming true?
unidentified		9-11, I knew it was happening.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You did?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Before it happened?
unidentified		During, actually.
		I didn't hear it, but I had no way of knowing.
		But the night before I had a rather violent dream, and when they told us we had an assembly to go to in class, I blurted out the word terrorism.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		I've written it down.
		Thank you.
		Active combat somewhere in North America.
		And you certainly can't rule out the possibility.
		Nearly anything could happen, couldn't it?
		You see, I do.
		Here's something I do believe.
		Because I've had an experience, weird as it was, and I'm not going to drag you all through it, but I had a profound precognitive experience.
		Only one in my life, but it was real.
		It was absolute.
		And it's not even open for discussion.
		I had a precognitive experience.
		Well, that means that human beings, through whatever method it comes to us, occasionally have these precognitive experiences, whether they come through a dream or they just come to you or however they come to you, it happens human beings do have occasionally visibility to tell what's going to happen in the future.
		So I think what we're doing is very valid.
		First time caller line, you are on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello, how are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Quite well, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where are you?
unidentified		My name is Vallas.
unidentified		I live in Denver, Colorado.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		My prediction is I think a nuclear bomb is going to go off either in Baghdad or the surrounding area and just take out everything.
unidentified		And especially more so now that Osama bin Laden has been given the order by those Islamic clerics to use a nuke against the Western powers.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You said you think a nuke goes off in Baghdad, right?
unidentified		Yes, I think with all the chaos going on, with these terrorists keep getting in there, I think that someone's just going to be so desperate for Al-Qaeda that they're going to pull out all the stops and just say, forget about it, we're just going to destroy everything and everybody in this whole area.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But sir, you wouldn't think that al-Qaeda would garner a lot of respect by destroying Baghdad with a nuclear weapon, would they?
unidentified		Well, what they would do is they would wipe out American soldiers.
unidentified		That's what their main goal is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No question.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But they would also wipe out Baghdad.
unidentified		Well, if these people are willing to abduct civilians and lop off heads, they're willing to wipe out anybody for any reason, actually.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I guess I can't argue with that.
		All right.
		Thank you very much.
		Thank you.
		These are rather negative predictions, aren't they?
		I guess you can't rule out what he said.
		God knows they've been blowing everything up they can in Baghdad, so I suppose it's a possible target, but you would think that the blowback from that would be pretty serious in the Arab world.
		And in some ways, that could be the end of al-Qaeda as a.
		Yeah, you wouldn't think they'd choose Baghdad.
		Anyway.
		Wildcard line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		Yes, my name is Fred from the Keysport, and listening on 1360 WPTT.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		My prediction for 2005 is going to be that the International Space Station is going to be abandoned due to three things.
unidentified		The age of our shuttle fleet, the many, many problems of maintenance in the actual space station, and the lack of money of the Russians to put more aircraft in the air.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, we've certainly been picking up a lot of the cost that the Russians have not been able to bear, a disproportionate amount of the so-called international space station cost.
		You're right about that, but we have been propping it up.
		What do you think would change our minds with regard to supporting it?
unidentified		Well, the lack of the other countries that are supposed to be providing modules to that space station, they're so far behind schedule that I don't foresee them ever getting them up there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy, that's one very sad prediction, and it could come true.
		I hope it doesn't.
		It's number 33, sir.
		Thank you.
unidentified		Good night.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good night.
		Boy.
		I'm very disappointed with our effort in space, or should I say our lack of effort in space.
		It's a long time ago now that we went to the moon.
		We haven't been back.
		We talk about going to Mars, but that's all we do is talk.
		We don't have anything close to a vehicle that could get us there.
		The space shuttle is aging, very, very much aging.
		And there's no real replacement, is there?
		I know they're working on various vehicles that can go to low Earth orbit and back in designs and so forth, but there's not really anything in place that's going to take over for the shuttle, is there?
		And they really are getting old.
		So I'm just sort of generally disappointed that we have not done more in space.
		And I know what the arguments are.
		I very well know what they are.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hi, I've got a prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It'll be number 34.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What would it be, sir?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, no, let's have your first name.
unidentified		First name is Jack, calling from Washington State.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, Jack.
unidentified		Well, one of your previous callers talked about combat in North America.
		Yes.
		Well, I've got some more specifics for you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh?
unidentified		The Russian forces will invade Alaska.
		Our forces will be overrun rather rapidly.
		They'll make desperate calls and pleas to the Pentagon, pardon me, and the White House for help.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, there certainly are some in Russia who believe that Alaska belongs to them.
unidentified		Absolutely.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you think Russia would have the audacity to invade Alaska?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's incredible.
unidentified		Not only the audacity, they have the capability.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, but they would be risking World War III.
unidentified		Well, not really, because they'll use conventional forces.
unidentified		We'd never use nukes on our own soil.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I guess that's a point to contend with.
unidentified		And there's three parts to my prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But that doesn't mean that we wouldn't use nukes on their soil.
unidentified		That's true, but there'd have to be some specific provocation in nuclear.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, invading Alaska actually might qualify.
unidentified		Well, there's two other parts of the prediction.
		Okay.
		As our commanders in the field in Alaska plead for reinforcements, there will be a cruise missile attack on the entire eastern seaboard.
		President Bush will determine that Alaska is a lost cause, and he'll draw as many forces from the rest of the country as he can.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So the attack on the east coast would be submarine-based, I take it?
unidentified		That's right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And still you think there would not be nuclear retaliation, but instead you think the president would concede Alaska and do what about the attacks on the east coast?
unidentified		Well, he'd draw as many forces as he could from the rest of our forces in the continental United States to defend the east coast.
		You know, put up a last chance, you know, last stand.
		And as the forces start going towards the east coast, then Chinese forces will come across the border from Mexico and start moving northward to meet up with forces from the Russian invasion.
		They'll come down into Washington State and start moving more into the heartland.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It sounds a little improbable to me.
		I mean, the things that you've described would absolutely engender nuclear retaliation.
		It would be World War III.
unidentified		Well, not if it was never intended to use nukes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There are certain things that I don't think we'd stand for, and that would be an actual invasion on our shores.
		I don't think we'd go for that.
		And then if you threw a cruise missile attack from the Atlantic in on top of that, you'd definitely have World War III, sir.
		But I'll put it down.
		Russia invades Alaska, and then eventually, of course, that's all I'm putting down for now, by the way.
		Russia invades Alaska.
		If that doesn't happen, the rest isn't going to happen anyway, right?
		right but any of that in my mind now how about you how about all of you what do you think the president of the U.S. would do whoever that might be at the time in this case it would be George Bush assuming he's continues to be healthy and so forth he'll be our president in 2005 and I don't think he'd respond well to a nuclear attack on a invasion of Alaska and then an attack on the East Coast by submarines with cruise missiles that just would
		not go down well at all and i don't think there's any president from either party who could would sit in office and not respond in a terrifying and that means that we would sink their submarines we would probably attack their homeland uh...
		it would be world war three and i think the fact that our enemies know that it would be world war three is what keeps them from doing anything like this so while i'll write it down officially as number thirty four i think you can rest easy i don't think that's going to happen uh...
unidentified		uh...

art bell ▲ ● ▼		Don't bring me down, but I know you can't help it, right?
		Because you're making predictions.
		Think about it.
		Out of 34 predictions made thus far tonight, only one, only one, could be called positive.
		All the rest would bring you down.
		They're in the negative category, like the news, like the network nightly news every night.
		Now, why do you think that is?
		Everybody bitches and complains about the network news content and how negative it is, right?
		They get an opportunity to make predictions, and what do they make?
unidentified		They make negative predictions.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So there's something to it, something more to all of it.
unidentified		So there's something to it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good evening.
		We're doing your psychic predictions for the year 2005 coming down very rapidly.
		We're doing them tonight, and then part two, December 31st, I'll be here for that, and then go on during the Christmas holiday.
		So if you don't get it in tonight, not to worry.
		There'll be more.
		First time caller line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
		Hi.
		My name is Lisa, and I'm calling from Wichita Back, Kansas.
		Okay, Lisa?
		My prediction is that sometime in this next year, between the middle to the end of this year coming up, there will be signs of another Holocaust through the military services.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Through the military services?
		Yes, sir.
		I'm not quite sure what you're saying.
unidentified		Okay, what I mean by that is, by definition, a Holocaust is a murder, a murder of mass people all at one time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		With as many people that are going over season stuff and all of that through the military, there's going to be so many people being sent across, especially with rumors of new laws being passed to lower the age limit of who's going to go over.
unidentified		They're talking like 12 years old and a little bit younger.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Who's talking about that?
unidentified		That I can't specifically say, but there is no problem.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Nobody that we've heard about in authority is talking about 12-year-olds being sent to Iraq.
unidentified		I have heard it.
		I have heard it, sir.
		I have heard this, and they're talking about nine years old and so on and so forth.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Nine years old, they barely ride a bike.
unidentified		No, they can't.
		And that also, that angers me.
		And that's why I see that, and I've even, me, I've even had dreams of this because I got so worried about my family being sent over there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, well, I'll put down a military-connected holocaust, all right?
		I don't know if that could occur.
		But the rest of it there, that's pretty strange stuff.
		See, I think that, well, I won't say anything.
		But that's the kind of thing that could drag down our average here.
		I want thoughtful.
		Maybe that was.
		Who am I to say?
		She's had dreams.
		Wildcard line, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Yes.
		I have a prediction that is going to implement a number of systems that have already been put into place.
		The first of which is Canamex.
		Have you heard of Canamex?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No.
unidentified		Okay, Canamex is a huge corridor that runs from Alaska to Mexico City, and it takes in Canada, United States, and Mexico.
		Now, on this corridor is the technology that's being implemented right now to where they can track everybody who is on the corridor.
		This will implement Digital Angel, which is now being approved by the FDA, which is called Verichip, to implant human beings with the microchip.
		Excuse me?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm familiar with that, yes?
unidentified		Yes.
		Okay, now what I believe is going to occur is that there's going to be a catastrophe, maybe similar to what the truck driver called in about.
		And the truckers are all aware of Canamex.
		It's under T21 legislation that there is going to be some kind of an event that is going to cause food security, which is already in progress since 1945 through the Forestry Service on identification with chips in animals, wild animals.
		Well, the food security also falls under the Department of Agriculture, which is where the food stamps are.
		There'll be a food security, and you've already heard little things about mad cow disease and a number of other imported products that will cause, in order for you to get the food, you will have to be implanted with the chip.
		And this will also implement the ports where we have huge containers that are coming in from China.
		They're lined up down the coast.
		Ships are lined up to come in and unload.
		And there's not very much tracking or inspections going on with those crates, as well as the Mexican truck drivers that come in.
		Okay, now this is also important because when Digital Angel was unveiled in the year 2000, China bought over a million chips.
		Now in China, they're slave labor, so they've already been implanting their people.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, they need a lot more than a million chips in China.
unidentified		Well, that was just the first shipment.
unidentified		That was back in the year 2000.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		I think I've got it.
		I've got the picture, and I've got it down here.
		It's prediction number 36.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		I think it's a little early for all that, but you never know.
		An event could bring it on.
		And I'm sure she's right about that corridor.
		And she's certainly right about the beginning of companies that are, you know, they're starting to produce these chips.
		There's absolutely no question about it.
		Whether it's ever going to be a mandatory thing and whether there's going to be an event that's going to propel us into that sort of frightening security or not.
		I don't know.
		East of the Rockies, you're on air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hey, how you doing, Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Quite well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And your first name?
unidentified		Chris.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And where are you, Chris?
unidentified		Fayetteville, North Carolina.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Fayetteville, huh?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And your prediction, which will be number 37.
unidentified		I believe there's going to be a biological release instead of a truck bomb or a nuclear bomb going off.
unidentified		I believe these guys are going to simply get on a plane and infect yourself with something and bring it over here, and there's no way we're going to detect it until it's too late.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
		I'm reading a book right now.
		So you think there's going to be a biological attack, right?
unidentified		Yes, I believe there is a.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, okay, thank you.
		I'm reading a book right now that suggests some terrorists get hold of the smallpox.
		You know, there is a little bit left here and there, and that they managed to get hold of a stock of smallpox and then genetically manage to mix it with HIV and then attack the west coast of the U.S. specifically with a satellite that dispenses it,
		you know, as it comes across the atmosphere of Southern California, it just sort of sprays out this horrid, horrid little mixture that gives you one big surprise right away within 10 days or so, and then another surprise a couple of years later.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		It's Julie Colling from Vancouver.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		My gosh, Julie, it's the run of the females.
unidentified		Oh, no.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, your prediction is going to be number 38.
unidentified		Okay, the Pope will die before the end of the year, this year.
unidentified		So I don't know if that makes it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, no, it doesn't.
		These are predictions now for 2005.
		And you're making one for between now and the end of the year.
unidentified		I think it's Christmas Day, and this isn't based on actually prediction.
		This is an announcement today.
		Oh.
		In church, actually, the priest at the end of Mass stood up and said, the Pope would like to announce that he feels his time on earth is coming to an end.
		Please pray for him.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Did he really say that?
unidentified		He really said that.
		And then we said the Our Father and left.
		And this was after dismissal.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Well, listen, I'm going to not write that down because obviously it's not a prediction for 2005, but we'll let that, well, it's already out on the air, so there you go.
		And if you're right, people, I guarantee you, will remember it.
		International line, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Good morning, Mr. Bell.
		Good morning.
		A very special cool you and a frantic first to you and Ramona.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		My name is Brenda.
		I'm listening at QR 77 in Calgary, Alberta.
		And my prediction that I foresee is in the latter part of 2005, there's going to be a very significant medical breakthrough.
		Some big discovery is going to be made that is going to really shock the medical field.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Something good.
unidentified		Very good.
unidentified		I don't know exactly what it is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, a man called earlier and said the cure for Parkinson's.
unidentified		It could be that, but what I see is a form of cancer, but it could be that, because that is part of very related to the cancer cells.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you think it might come from stem cell research?
unidentified		Yes, I do.
unidentified		Yes, I do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you a backer of stem cell research?
unidentified		Yes, I am.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And do you think that we are unnecessarily prohibiting the right kind of lines of research here in the U.S.?
unidentified		Oh, most definitely.
unidentified		If they just let them have a free hand, it would be miraculous as to the discoveries that could be made.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, then it's likely or very probably going to come from, oh, I don't know, France or China or Japan or somewhere else where they're doing the work.
unidentified		Agreed?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Not restrained.
		All right, some kind of giant medical breakthrough.
		Well, I hope you're right about that, and thank you for the second positive prediction.
unidentified		Oh, you're very welcome.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		And that was a run of how many females in a row?
		Yikes.
		How do you figure that?
		Well, a big medical breakthrough.
		Wouldn't it be something if they cured cancer?
		You have to wonder about the impact on the pharmaceutical industry, the medical industry, and it is one in general, if they were to cure something as big as cancer, and the impact on a lot of other things like Social Security and the fact that people would be living a lot longer.
		Cancer is a pretty big killer, right?
		But eventually, one of these is going to come true.
		First time caller line, you're on the air.
		Good morning.
		Hello?
		Going once.
		Hello?
unidentified		Yes, I have a prediction for Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I'm Art.
unidentified		Am I on the air now?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, you are.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you have your radio on, and you shouldn't.
unidentified		No, I don't have my radio on.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's good.
		Okay.
		Well, since you're on the air, the time is now.
		Proceed.
unidentified		Hey, Art.
		My name is Mike, and I've just on Interstate 15.
		I just passed the world's largest thermometer headed towards Las Vegas.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		And my prediction for you is that there will be a terrorist attack in the Las Vegas area around July.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Why Las Vegas?
unidentified		It'll either be a dirty nuclear event or some kind of biological event.
		This comes to me as sort of a premonition.
		I've been evading terrorism most of my life.
		I spent like 25 years in the military.
		I narrowly missed with the IRA in Northern Ireland a couple times in the early 70s.
		I actually had a ticket for Pan Am Flight 103 that fatally reached its demise over New East Scotland.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You have been close, haven't you?
unidentified		I have.
unidentified		I was at the Marine Barracks in Lebanon.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's pretty incredible, all right.
		Okay, well, I've got you down.
		It's prediction number 39, a terrorist attack on Las Vegas.
		Now, every motion picture that's made nearly that has something of this sort always destroys Las Vegas.
		Frankly, many of us in Nevada are tired of seeing Las Vegas being destroyed.
		Now, I understand why it might be on people.
		In fact, even the recent motion picture that I thought was kind of a knockoff of what we did to destroy Las Vegas, I think it was Tornadoes, wasn't it?
		In Las Vegas or something.
		Anyway, it's always Las Vegas being destroyed.
		And in Nevada, I'd like to lodge a protest about this.
		And can't you destroy another city for a while?
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
		Yeah, my name is Greg.
		I'm from Minnesota.
		Hello, Greg.
		My prediction, I'll let you decide for yourself, this is good or bad.
		I think Jim Morrison will be found to have been alive in 2005 sometime.
		Jim Morrison from the Doors.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You do, huh?
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's quite a prediction to make.
unidentified		I had heard I watched a lot of television and I heard earlier, this was a few months back, that he had something that he had, before he had died, he had originally bought the plot where he's going to be buried, and he had paid for it to be up in 20 years, which would be this coming 2005.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're talking about the burial place in Paris?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I was there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I was at his grave site.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And so...
unidentified		He only paid for it to be there for 20 years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
unidentified		2005 would be 20 years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		it's going to have to be moved.
unidentified		It's actually, it's a very That would happen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That would be some surprise.
		Why?
		Do you have any thoughts on why he would have faked his own death?
unidentified		For the life of me, I can't tell you why.
		I just think it's going to be proven that he's going to show up someplace, somebody's going to turn him in, or he's going to turn himself and say, hey, here I am.
		I got you guys.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Light my fire.
		All right.
		Thank you.
		Ramona and myself went to his grave in Paris, actually the outskirts of Paris.
		And it was a very, very eerie graveyard, to be sure.
		It was a very old graveyard in Paris.
		And a lot of the tombs, and there were a lot of tombs, went back way, way back, 1700, 1800s, I think even much earlier than that.
		And it was just an eerie place.
		You know, we walked around it.
		It was a very eerie place.
		But he's right about Jamorrison coming back.
		They were talking about it at the time we were there, that the gravesite was going to have to be moved.
		Welcome to the Rockies.
		You're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Yes, Mr. Bell.
unidentified		It's a pleasure to be talking to you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Welcome to the program.
unidentified		Thank you.
		I have a premonition, and it goes back to one of your previous callers saying that we were going to be attacked through Alaska.
		What I think is going to happen is that Russia is actually going to ask for some of our help dealing with the Chechen rebels and whatnot.
		It probably won't be such a high-profile military actions per se, but what we'd probably do is end up bargaining with them to get some of their oil.
		Okay.
		You know, I guess Siberia, from what I understand, has quite an oil reserve.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It does, and they don't have much in the way of infrastructure in order to drill for and then move that oil.
		So it could well be that we will give them assistance.
		Whether it'll be mixed up with us assisting with the Chechens or not, I don't know.
unidentified		The reason I feel it'd be with the Chechens, it would be some kind of special ops.
		It wouldn't be a very high-profile because we are spread out so thin.
		Gotcha.
		But it would definitely, you know, Mr. Bush, he is an oil man.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		President Bush?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		An oil man?
unidentified		Really?
unidentified		Exactly.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No.
unidentified		And, you know, a deal's a deal.
		And we have the Alaskan pipeline.
		All we need is a big T to put onto it.
		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much.
		And take care.
		So he believes that we will give some perhaps covert help to Russia with the Chechen problem.
		And in return, we'll get, I guess, big contracts, he's suggesting, to go in and drill.
		And I guess we are working on that.
		You know, a lot of U.S. companies are bidding on going into Russia and drilling for oil.
		And then, I suppose, setting up pipelines, as he points out, perhaps just adding to the Alaska pipeline to get it down and into the world marketplace.
		It's entirely plausible.
		I'm not sure about the help part for the Chechens.
		The Russians are a very, very proud people.
		And they generally don't ask anybody for help.
		They want to do everything on their own from the mother country.
		All right, we're going to pause here at the top of the hour.
		When we come back, I'll read you some more predictions that were made for 2004, and we'll judge how you did.
		Hopefully, you're in the middle of making even a better record for the year 2005.
		I'm Art Bell.

art bell ▲ ● ▼		It certainly is.
		We're doing predictions for 2005.
		It is perhaps decade-old tradition now on this program.
		And I'm going to now review some of the predictions made for the year 2004.
		And I don't think we did too well in this coming up launch.
		Number 36 was one of President Bush's daughters gets pregnant.
		Well, that would be, as far as I know, a bong.
		They're certainly of the eligible age, but I don't think it's there yet.
		Number 37, Mark of the Beast Starts.
		Now, you know, I'm tempted to ding that.
		I mean, we did have a company that's begun, started the chip.
		I'm going to ding that.
		Just a tentative ding, okay?
		Number 38.
		The UN gets blown up.
		Well, so far as I know, that's a bonk.
		Number 39, dirty bomb in Paris.
		Bonk.
		Number 40, Bigfoot killed by a truck in Arizona.
		Bonk.
		We have the body, right?
		Number 41, San Andreas Fault produces an earthquake.
		Bonk.
		I think.
		Oh, no.
		That's a ding.
		There was indeed an earthquake that was said to be along the San Andreas Fault.
		That's a ding.
		Gold coins found to be fake.
		I have no idea what that means.
		As far as I know, most gold coins are gold coins, but as well, I'll give that a bonk.
		Number 43, a bullpaul-type accident in Louisiana.
		Definitely bonk.
		Number 44, a probe to Mars goes and gets life from Mars.
		Bonk.
		We haven't done that yet.
		But we're getting close.
		Number 45, seven seals opened.
		You know, the seven seals.
		Or I guess the seventh seal open.
		Bonk.
		Not so far as I know.
		Number 46, weapons of mass destruction manufactured.
		Well, who knows?
		Well, that's a ding.
		Actually, in North Korea, we had a lot of bad news.
		Ding, ding, ding, ding.
		Number 47, gas price is going up.
		Could even double.
		Ding, ding, ding, ding.
		Boy, they sure as hell went up.
		Number 48, Dick Cheney steps down for health reasons.
		Well, you know, he was in the hospital, but hasn't stepped down, so that's bonk.
		Number 49, president to reveal shadow government.
		Ha!
		Bonk.
		I knew that was going to be a bonk.
		Even if it was a shadow government, the president's not going to reveal it.
		Number 50, a problem found with our food supply.
		Thank God that's a bonk.
		And there are those who actually went out of government saying they're surprised there hasn't been yet.
		Number 51, more vegetarians.
		I don't know.
		I have no idea.
	Are there more vegetarians out there?
	Anemic-looking folk?
	I'll get a lot of email on that.
	Okay, that's a...
	I don't know if there's more vegetarians or not.
	I'll erase my bonk.
	Number 52, USA blackmailed over moon hoax.
	Oh, I see.
	That we never went to the moon and somebody blackmailed us.
	Well, not as far as I know.
	I'm giving that a bonk.
	And number 53, oh, God, here's one.
	The year of the big hurricanes.
unidentified		Ding, da ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It sure was the year of the big hurricanes.
		No denying that.
		whoever did number fifty three you're going to want to be calling us as quickly as you can on this program uh...
unidentified		uh...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Reminding you all, these are numbered and then sealed in the Bell Family Vault predictions made for the year 2005.
		This and December 31st being your only opportunities to make these predictions for the coming year.
		And who knows, your opportunity at fame should you hit a really big one.
		First time caller line, you are on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
		My name is Joanne.
		I'm calling from Woodbridge, Ontario, Canada.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hey there.
unidentified		How are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just spiffy.
unidentified		Just spiffy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		Well, Bruce and I wish you and Ramona all the best.
		And that Yeti.
		All the best for Merry Christmas.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wait a minute.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Bruce, did you say Bruce?
unidentified		This is my partner.
		Oh.
		My name is Joanne.
		Oh.
		And we live in Woodbridge, Ontario.
		And this is going to be my Christmas present, I'll tell you, because I've been on hold for about 20 minutes now.
		But I've been actually on, we listen to you faithfully.
		And we do get your magazine subscription.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, you have a prediction.
unidentified		I do.
		I do.
		That was something about Mojo, so maybe Elvis will come back too.
		But that's not my prediction.
		I have a positive prediction for a change art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		And I'm thinking, yeah, we need some more positive ones.
		Yes.
		And I'm thinking that in our in our political leaders, families, and I don't know where which country this is going to be in, but I do believe it'll probably be national, international, like on our continent.
		And that is that in one of our political families, that there will be a multi-birth before the and I'm not talking about a multiple birth, but I'm not talking until after November 11th, 2005.
		So that's what my prediction is.
		And I have one more, and he does it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, no, no, no, no.
		I can't let you do it.
		One per customer.
		That's an absolute rule.
		But a multiple birth in a political family.
		She said internationally.
		Well, that would be odd enough, wouldn't it?
		And very interesting.
		And that is an interesting prediction all in itself.
		So some large political family, you know, the Bush family or maybe the Canadian Prime Minister, who knows, somewhere somebody's going to have a whole bunch of not just one, but a big multiple birth.
		We'll see.
		Wildcardline, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		My name's Scott, and I'm calling from Provo, Colorado.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, Scott.
unidentified		I kind of have like three different stages to one prediction.
unidentified		Well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But I guess the first part would be, First, give us the prediction, and then you can tell us how we got there.
unidentified		Okay, well, in Colorado Springs, and I believe it's going to be on Christmas Day, they're supposed to distribute the Bible at churches to all the newspapers to all the homes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Christmas Day.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		2005 or 2005?
unidentified		Well, this year, but in 2005, I believe that that'll be made illegal for churches to do that and for churches to be on television.
		Oh, now.
		The beginning stages of it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, you really think so?
		Yes.
		The beginning of the crushing of Christians, right?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, okay.
		Well, see, this is sort of a prophecy thing more than it is your prediction, right?
		I mean, it's prophecy.
unidentified		No, I thought this for years, but I wasn't sure what year I thought it would really take effect, and I think it's going to be in 2005.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, let's put down Bibles are illegal.
unidentified		Okay, that's fine.
		Okay.
		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Thank you very much, and take care.
		Bibles illegal.
		I don't think so.
		I don't think so.
		I understand that many Christians think eventually, you know, Christians are going to be very persecuted.
		That may occur.
		Prosecuted, too.
		That may occur, but I don't think we're very close to it.
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Good morning.
unidentified		Good morning.
		Arctic.
		Yes.
		Yes, this is the Arctic, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where you ISN, 9 degrees.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		9 degrees, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I watched a football game from your area earlier today, and it was more or less a blizzard going on.
unidentified		Yes, yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		San Diego game.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy, what a game.
unidentified		Yes.
unidentified		I want to say, too, that the night that Anne had her ordeal, I automatically, quickly lifted her up in prayer.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		And I prayed for her, Anne Whitley, and happy holidays to you.
		I have a prediction for 2005.
		There's going to be multiple, multiple UFO sightings coming up, and they will be approximately in the southwest, going up to the northeast, maybe into the Canada area.
		And this will be very predominant, and some people will have some abduction and maybe some short-term memory.
		But this will be happening even possibly New Year's Eve, even into the early spring.
		But there will be more and more calls coming into the coast-to-coast line and to our dear friend who handles the UFO line.
		And I am a long-time listener.
		But this is going to be manifested quite regularly coming up very soon for 2005.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		May I ask, how does this come to you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How do you?
unidentified		It came to me absolutely looking at my lights on the Christmas tree.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yeah, yeah.
		And I was just kind of reading a book and feeling that something was imminent, and I couldn't place it.
		And I closed my eyes for about a couple of minutes, and I could actually see some of the southwest, the New Mexico, even into the Nevada areas, the Sierra, Nevada, and then up into the Vancouver area, and even sometimes even Florida a little bit.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let me try this out on you.
		Why do you think, even with all the sightings we've had, that we have not yet had contact?
		In other words, if they're in our skies, and they seem to be, why has there not been some sort of official contact yet?
unidentified		There's not been contact because now there's going to be more signs and wonders.
		This is just going to be part of consciousness and spirituality and slowly coming into this.
		But contact will be at a time yet that we will not know of.
		But electronically, many people do know some way, some way, some way that there will be something to be able to contact.
		But that isn't for 2005.
		I'm just saying that there will be multiple sightings, this triangular type of craft.
		And some people will absolutely experience abductions, and they will be calling you with some short-term memory problems and even some individual markings and burns on their bodies.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Got it.
		All right.
		It's number 44, and I thank you for it.
unidentified		Thank you.
unidentified		God bless you, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		So a big UFO flap in 2005, that could very well be, of course, combined with abductions.
		And all of that combines to give me the willies.
		In other words, I've never been particularly sure about UFOs one way or the other until I had my own encounter.
		And from that time on, it does, to some degree, give me the willies.
		And when you start talking about abductions, then, in my mind, it tips over into the more likely they're not going to be our friends kind of deal.
		I don't know that they're going to be our enemies, but I don't think they have our best interests in mind.
		Let's put it that way.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
		Hello.
		Blessings to you and yours.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And to you as well, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Welcome to the program.
unidentified		Thank you.
		I remember years ago, somebody told me about your show, and I heard it, and then Lynn was on it, Lynn Lon Howe.
		And I thought you were my principal, because after school, Lynn and her brother, Lynn Howe and her brother, I don't know if it's the same one, used to watch this.
		Anyway, I have this deep sense that people in America and probably Canada are going to start taking remote viewing very seriously and learning it and learning different tangents of it instead of just the technical aspects.
		I have a deep respect for Major James, and I know what he's doing, and I don't remote view people.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm expecting a visit from the Major at any moment.
unidentified		I always call myself Phoenix James, and you always correct me, but I live in the high desert of Arizona.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Thank you very much.
		I too take Ed seriously.
		He's had his misses, but he sure has had his hits, too.
		And you may recall on a previous program, Ed said he was going to show up on my doorstep, something I did not promote, with a bunch of gold that he will have found.
		And he was going to do that around Christmas of this year, and that's getting mighty close.
		International Line, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I didn't push the button.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		International Line, I think you're on the air now.
unidentified		Hi.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hello.
unidentified		Is this Art?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How are you doing, Art?
		I'm doing fine, sir.
		Where are you?
unidentified		I'm in Fort Scotchman, Alberta.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Excellent.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Welcome to the program.
unidentified		You were just talking about, well, I'm listening to the radio program here.
unidentified		It's sort of delayed, and I get the second half first, and then the first half.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
unidentified		So I'm not quite sure where you are.
		I have a prediction.
		I would have to say that God's kingdom is about to come about.
		All the Christians, Jews, and other people who are willing to be part of God's plan will all start to migrate.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is it going to be the great sucking sound?
unidentified		No, I don't think so.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, then, what do you mean?
		You're going to have to be specific enough so I can write it down.
		I mean, God's plan is always unfolding.
unidentified		It is, it is.
		Okay, God has been speaking to me for probably the last nine, ten years.
		He's been preparing me in many, many different ways.
		He's been giving me many spiritual gifts, prophecy, speaking in tongues, healing, which I have medical evidence on that one.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, but again, we need a specific prediction here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And since you're talking with the man himself, it shouldn't be too hard.
unidentified		Okay, the man himself is going to prepare everyone for a mass exodus.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's the big sucking sound I was talking about.
unidentified		That would be the big sucking sound?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, yes, it would be.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		Well, in that case, put down the big sucking sound.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, got it.
		Thank you very much.
		Actually, I'm not sure it's reverent to put down the big sucking sound.
		I'd put down the big sucking sound.
		I'll know what it means.
		Big sucking sound.
		That would be when all the Christians are taken up overnight.
		They're gone.
unidentified		And I don't know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, if we all woke up one day and all the true believers were gone and only those of us left with doubts or whatever else prevented our being hoovered up were left down here.
		We'd all look at each other and go, oops.
		First time caller line, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		And John Redlands.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		John?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		And I've got a very strong premonition that cold fusion will be rediscovered sometime next year in Ukraine or Estonia in that area of the world.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		I don't know why, but I think there's more to that coal fusion story from Salt Lake, and I think it's going to come back up again this coming year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Your prediction is going to be number 47.
		I thought that Pons and Flashnin, didn't they go to France, was it?
		Or somewhere in Europe, right?
unidentified		Right.
		That's why they might have gone to.
		But some people get the feeling that it's going to be one of the former Soviet republics, Northern Republics, Latvia or Ukraine, something like that.
		I don't know why I have that feeling.
		That's what I just thought I'm getting a feeling for.
		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Number 47, it is.
		Thank you very much.
		And that certainly could occur because that research is ongoing, even though it's been taken offshore for what I consider to be slightly embarrassing reasons.
		It could come roaring back at us any time, couldn't it?
		Wildcard line, you are on the air.
		Good morning.
unidentified		Hi, Dar.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Where are you?
unidentified		Yes, I'm in Midland, Texas.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Midland, Texas.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, and your first name?
unidentified		Jeff.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, have you a prediction for us?
unidentified		Yes, I sure do.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Proceed.
unidentified		Going to go ahead and tell you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, yeah, the idea is to give your prediction.
unidentified		Of course, of course.
unidentified		Have you had anything about a draft yet?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Nobody has said a word about it.
unidentified		Okay, well, that's my prediction.
		I have a gut feeling about it.
		It's kind of a sick, creepy feeling lately.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, we've had a couple of other predictions of like 100,000 troops being sent to Iraq for border protection and a number of other...
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you think that'll come, well, it's already after the election, after the president is reinstalled for four or more years.
unidentified		Especially after he's been reinstalled and he can sort of wedge his way into that and say, oh, by the way, we need this.
unidentified		It's good for the country.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy.
unidentified		Right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You've got to imagine it could occur.
		Your predictions are number 48.
		All right?
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Have a good night.
unidentified		Do we need to hang on or?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, don't hang on.
		You've done it already.
		Thank you.
unidentified		Is it going to be on the air?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What do you mean is it going to be on the air?
unidentified		Is it going to be...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, who do you think it is?
unidentified		It is you.
		Oh, you sounded different.
		It's the phone line.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's probably going to be on the air, sir.
unidentified		I appreciate that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, good.
		All right.
		Take care.
unidentified		Thank you, sir.

		And listen, everybody, from the high desert, because we will be off here during Christmas, Christmas weekend.
		Then I'll be back on the 31st, which is a Friday night, Saturday morning, to finish up the predictions for 2005.
		So, Ramona, myself, and our four furry friends in order of arrival, Abby, Shadow, Comet, and now Yeti, would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas, a very Merry Christmas.

		If you'll stay right there, it continues.
unidentified		It continues.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Looks very much like we're on track to making well over 100 predictions, which is about what we do every year during a couple of shows.
		And some of them are just bound to come true.
		It's no big deal making a prediction.
		It's not hard to make a prediction, but it is difficult to get it right when it's very specific, as I demand these be.
		First time caller line, you're on the air.
		Good morning.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What is your first name?
unidentified		Robert from Los Angeles, where an airplane took out our KFI tower today.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, I saw the news story.
unidentified		An hour of, what, two hours of dead air?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Welcome to the program.
unidentified		Thanks a lot.
unidentified		Yeah, I just called to say that you're going to have a guest on your show this coming year talking about life, large life down on Mars.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh.
unidentified		A lot of the images from Mars have been classified.
		Mars has seasonal changes where Mars actually has green spots on the planet, which has large life forms of basically a fungus or a mold that grows.
		And they've been editing most of the photographs for many years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You really think so?
unidentified		I know.
unidentified		I've seen some of the photographs that haven't been edited.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I've seen a few that would seem to suggest greenery and that sort of thing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But so when you're saying large life, you're thinking perhaps fungal life of some sort?
unidentified		Right.
		There's parts of the planet where fungal life, a green fungus, actually grows.
		And what's more even interesting than that, that there's low levels of oxygen in those particular areas, which is even more interesting.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It is fascinating.
		All right, sir.
		Thank you very much.
		So a fungus on Mars.
		There he is.
		We'll probably get a piece of it to bring it back here.
		Mars fungus devours city after city.
		I can just see it now.
		We better, you know, we're going to really have to be careful about what we bring back.
		Wildcard line, you're on air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		It's a distinct pleasure to talk to you again, even though it's been a little while.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's all right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What is your name?
unidentified		My name is Jim, and I'm calling you from Kansas City, Missouri, where I'm listening to you on News Talk Radio 710KCMO.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And we're your football team won today, huh?
unidentified		Yeah, big time, yeah.
unidentified		And also, I want to let you know that my cat Casper sends Yeti a very hearty Merry Christmas as well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm sure they can talk.
unidentified		I'm sure they can.
unidentified		Have you had any predictions yet on the economy, Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, this would be the first.
unidentified		Okay.
		Well, I want to, first of all, tell you that this prediction of mine came to me in a dream, and it came to me not once, but twice, you know, different aspects of the same type of situation.
		Okay.
		And my prediction is this.
		I think we're probably going to be okay throughout the bulk of 2005, but my prediction is that sometime toward the latter part of 2005, probably along about October or November of that year,
		there's going to be one major financial institution in the United States and another in Canada that is going to finally call in some of its debt, and it's going to lead to the collapse of a well-known corporation.
		Wow.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We can't take too many more of those.
unidentified		Yeah, I know.
		Well, see, the thing about it is, is that in both aspects of this dream, this particular downturn, if you want to call it that, was triggered by some kind of event.
		Now, whether it was a terrorist attack or whether it was some type of internal business matter or something that happened in the Middle East, I'm not quite clear just exactly on how that happened.
		But in the aftermath of this X event, I guess I'll call it, several big companies are going to find that their debts have been called in by some of the financial institutions.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Got it marked down.
		Well, I mean, look what already occurred after 9-11 to the aircraft industry, yikes.
unidentified		Well, no doubt about it.
		And, you know, we're living on credit cards, and the U.S. is in debt, and we're trying to buy real estate without any debt, and something is going to trigger it, and this house of cards is going to start falling.
		And as it ripples across the United States, I also feel like, according to this prediction, it's going to ripple for some of our friends up north of the border in Canada.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Got it.
		Collapse of a large corporation and the ripples of that through the U.S. and Canada.
		That would not surprise me, and I'm sure many of the rest of you would not be surprised.
		And it could be that we have a financial house of cards set up right now.
		We do have a lot.
		I think, what, the maximum, the most credit card individual debt that we've had in all time or something, and everybody's in debt.
		And so, yeah.
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hi.
unidentified		Hi.
		All right.
		This is Nick from North Carolina.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Turn your radio off, please.
unidentified		Oh, I'm sorry.
unidentified		Is that better?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, much.
unidentified		Okay.
		This is Nick from North Carolina.
		I just wanted to say I really enjoy your show.
		I've been listening now for about two years, and I think it's great.
		Thanks.
		I wanted to make a prediction.
		I mean, this is pretty much coming, no doubt.
		Sometime in the first half of 2005, I predict that the Pope will pass away.
		I can't figure.
		For some reason, sometime either in May or in June of this coming year is when he'll finally pass away.
		So that's my prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		all right uh...
unidentified		between may and june the pope will Well, I can tell you this.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		He sure has survived many years of predictions of his demise on this program.
unidentified		Absolutely.
		Absolutely.
		But I think that this is probably going to be the year that this coming year is going to be probably his last six months here on Earth.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Got it.
		Thank you very much.
		Thank you very much for the call.
		He certainly has defied all predictions, not just on this program, but around the world.
		And frail though he may be, he somehow, through the, I don't know, some sheer incredible willpower remains.
		West of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hi.
unidentified		Hi, Arch.
unidentified		What number would this one be?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		52.
unidentified		Oh, my goodness.
unidentified		Back in 1995, it was 52.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		He was.
		Then it came out.
		okay my prediction was an earlier prediction was made that was something that i was going to say so i'll change mine to uh...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What do you mean change?
unidentified		Well, I had one prediction, but then I didn't want to repeat it that somebody else more or less brought up.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Already.
		Well, I know, but if many people are having the same feelings, then maybe there's really something to it.
		So at least tell me what the first one was.
unidentified		Well, I was picturing a celebrity having triplets.
unidentified		So announcing that they're going to have triplets.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They were thinking political family, some international political family.
		All right.
		So your prediction.
unidentified		So the current prediction I want to give you is I see a celebrity having an accident with a tree again.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Celeb versus tree.
		With a tree.
		Hitting it or falling out of it or what do you think?
unidentified		Well, I'm thinking whether first I saw a tree and then I wondered who was by the tree.
unidentified		So I'm thinking either something's going to fall off the tree and hit this person or the tree may tip over and go through a house and they're pinned by it or something like that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that's a pretty wild prediction to make.
unidentified		Yeah, because we thought we'd learn with the people skiing into them.
		And this isn't, I don't really see them running into it.
		I don't know.
		Otherwise, you'd see a car accident or something like that into one.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		It's down and registered number 52.
		All right.
unidentified		And we'll catch you again next year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care, buddy.
		All right.
		A celebrity versus tree in some way.
		I suggested falling out, hitting it or falling out of it.
		And he said, no, something may be falling out of the tree or the tree falling on a house or the celebrity or something.
		But that's a pretty odd one, so we will see.
		International line, you're on the air.
		Top Of the morning to you.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
		Hi.
		Okay.
		I think that.
		Can you hear me okay?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'd wish for more volume if you could generally.
unidentified		I think that Lisa Marie Presley is going to have a hit song.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		I think it'll be in the top ten.
		Maybe it'll be number one, but I think it'll be in the top ten.
		And it'll just be a CD that's okay, but this one song is going to be her big hit song of her life.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A one-hit wonder.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		Well, she might.
		You never know.
		Certainly is a fine-looking woman.
		All right.
		So she has a hit record.
		That's an odd one to predict.
		And it's followed by a CD or something, naturally, which is not necessarily a big deal.
		And it's sort of a one-hit wonder.
		Okay, thank you.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right, take care.
		Odd one to make, huh?
		Very odd.
		First-time color line, you are on the air.
		Good morning.
unidentified		Hi.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		How are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm fine.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Turn your radio off, please.
unidentified		It's off.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
unidentified		My name's Deb, and I'm a truck driver.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, Beth.
unidentified		And I have a prediction that I think that we are going to have a terrorist attack, and I think it's going to come through our porch.
unidentified		And the one thing most people don't realize is that those containers in the porch come on trains all over the United States, and a lot of them aren't opened and searched.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know.
unidentified		I think it's going to come through the port in Los Angeles because it's owned by the Chinese.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		You're registered.
		You know, it chills me.
		She's obviously in a truck, right?
		It chills me that the truckers themselves are the ones that are making...
		The first trucker really hit me hard, and this lady kind of followed it up.
		But the truckers seem to feel that their industry is going to be the victim of, or the carrier of, an attack, and a big attack.
		So that, to me, rises just about above everything else I've heard this morning thus far.
		Interesting, huh?
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		All right.
unidentified		How are you doing?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Quite well, thank you.
unidentified		Don't from northern Kentucky.
		I listen to you on 55, KRC.
		Yes, sir.
		I've had something that's been bothering me.
		I see this coming within the next seven to nine months.
		And what it is is a planned simultaneous attack by Iran into Iraq, Red China into Taiwan, and North Korea into South Korea.
		And I hope it don't happen, but I feel that very strongly.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Iran into Iraq, the Koreas, and what else?
unidentified		China into Taiwan.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		China into Taiwan, yeah.
unidentified		And this would be a simultaneous.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's hard to even contemplate.
		Now, of course, there are questions about what we would do if Taiwan was invaded by China.
		If all three of these things were to occur at the same time, what do you think the United States, how would the United States respond?
unidentified		We're going to have to have some help.
unidentified		I think it's going to be real tough for us, but I think in the end we'll come out okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, we'd need some help.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much.
		He imagines a coordinated attack between Iran hitting Iraq, which would be real trouble, the two Koreas, real trouble, and then China into Taiwan, also requiring our resources.
		So he imagines three things that would absorb more resources than we have, and indeed the international community would have to be very involved.
		Wow.
		First time callerLine, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hey, Eric, this is Eric in Gatston, Alabama.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi, Eric.
unidentified		And my prediction, unfortunately, is more along the lines of the Pope dying.
		But it's a little more elaborate than what you've heard so far.
		I've got him dying on the 15th of May, or the 15th of March, in 2005.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		One or the other?
unidentified		The 15th of March.
		Oh, okay.
		I also see that the conclave that they're going to have afterwards is going to last nearly a week before they elect one of the cardinals of France, Cardinal Billet, as the new Pope.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Right.
unidentified		And that he will be the last Pope of the Catholic Church as it is known today.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, really?
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In what manner, because of what is he the last pope?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you know that?
unidentified		I think maybe there's going to be drastic changes to make it more modernized or more liberalized or something, and it's just going to change.
unidentified		I'm not exactly sure, but I don't see the Catholic Church remaining as it is now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Gee, it doesn't seem like they'd give up the whole Pope thing at all.
unidentified		I don't think it's necessary that he'll be the last Pope, but that the Church itself will maybe diminish into a secondary church behind the major other Christian churches.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Maybe.
		One never knows.
		All right, thank you very much.
		The Pope to die March 15th, so that's awfully specific.
		And then the successor from France, and then that's the last of them, in a sense.
		Wildcard line, you're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hi, Ayurved.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		Yes, this is Oz in Southern California.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hey, Oz.
unidentified		Yeah, my prediction is that before.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, look, I'm not going to allow those on.
		I don't allow those on the air.
		And when people make predictions like that, then that gets me a visit from the Secret Service.
		So I pushed the button on you.
		He made a prediction of an assassination.
		And as I mentioned, I don't allow those.
		I have had many visits of that sort, and I don't want more.
		So I should have said that at the beginning of the show.
		No political assassination predictions accepted.
		Thank you very much.
		East of the Rockies, you're on the air.
		Good morning.
unidentified		Yes.
unidentified		How are you doing, Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm doing great.
unidentified		Michael in Seattle.
unidentified		Listening to you on XM Radio.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		My prediction Is a nuke goes off in India.
		We invade Iran.
		And something, I don't know if it's biological or just some new disease, as crazy as this is going to sound, red armpits all over America.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So there's an attack on our armpits.
unidentified		Yeah, yeah.
		Don't ask me where that one's coming from.
		Just a dream I had.
		Red armpits all over America.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm laughing.
		It's actually sad.
		Certainly that would be very sad, I guess.
		That's the damnest thing I ever heard, actually.
		Red armpits, the attack of the armpits.
		All right.
		Thank you very much.
		I'll put down both the nuke and the red armpits, even though they sound like separate predictions.
		Thank you.
unidentified		All right.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good night.
		Welcome to the Rockies.
		You're on the air.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hello.
unidentified		This is Olin in Culver City, California.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, Olin.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Not a lot of time left here.
unidentified		predict that coast-to-coast AM will bring back Dr. Eugene Malov to talk about cold fusion power just like he did on November 20, 2000 with Mike Siegel.
		Well, cold fusion is the process that neutralizes radioactive waste in a...
		Well, are you saying that he's dead?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah.
unidentified		Oh, I didn't realize that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Does that affect your prediction?
		I mean, in his program, you can't always tell.
		It might not affect your prediction.
		You might be predicting he's going to return in the full sense.
unidentified		Well, we've got to find somebody to talk about this cold fusion because that's the process that neutralized the radioactive waste in the glass of water.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, are you now changing your tune on Dr. Malat?
unidentified		If Eugene Malov is dead, then we'll have to just say that somebody will come to Coast to Coast AM to talk about gold fusion power and the fact that one part of water and 670 parts of water is heavy water.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, all right.
		That said, sir, I'm sorry, I'm out of time and I've got to go.
		I think that I'm going to scratch that one out.
		So we've done 57 predictions.
		Ladies and gentlemen, again, Merry Christmas to you, our family to yours.
		And here's Crystal Gale to get us out.
		Just the right words, always.
		Truly, Merry Christmas.
unidentified		Good night.
		This magical journey will take us on a ride.
		Filled with the longing, searching for the truth.
		Will we make it to tomorrow?
		Will the sun shine on you?
		Good night in the desert.
