art bell ▲ ● ▼		From the high desert and the great American Southwest, I bid you good evening, good morning, good afternoon, whatever the case may be.
		As the new year rushes across the continent, a couple of hours away here on the west coast, about a million people, one million people, jammed Times Square and whooped it up and brought in 2007.
		Now, I suppose it's just past the Midwest and headed toward the mountain states.
		That's the good news.
		The bad news, 3,000 dead in Iraq so far.
		That makes the number of Americans who have died in the Iraq war 3,000, 3,000 now.
		That's in 46 months, folks.
		Saddam buried in the village of his birth, or if you're a conspiracy buff, running around in South America somewhere, I suppose.
		Hamasites, progress in prisoner talks, believe that when you see it.
		Stream of visitors, of course, paying respect to the late President Ford.
		It seems as though a fleet of small planes is required to canvas snow-covered roads in Colorado today, looking for people stranded after a powerful, yet another powerful storm piled up to 10-foot-high drifts.
		Can you imagine that?
		Sure you saw the pictures of the big rigs stuck on I-40.
		God, what a mess that must have been.
		And that's about it.
		That's all I care to give you in the way of world news.
		What we're going to do tonight, I would like to welcome you to Predictions by You 2007, Part 2.
		Now, here's the way it works.
		In case you missed last night's program, there are a few rules.
		Only one prediction per customer.
		In fact, tonight I'm going to get very strict.
		Anybody trying to slip in a second prediction will have their first prediction canceled.
		Okay?
		That's strict.
		One prediction per customer.
		That's one.
		Two is only on-air predictions are recorded.
		Now I know you will send them on Fast Blast.
		You will send them on email.
		You will throw them into my driveway.
		Whatever they are, they will not be recorded unless they're actually here on the air.
		That way there is no hanky-panky going on because we all get to record them.
		They're a matter of very, very public record.
		And maybe if you get a hit, the whole world knows about it.
		Now, just one more thing, please.
		Only predictions from your very psychic center.
		No hopes.
unidentified		No political aspirations.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just physical, psychic-centered.
		I sat here and it came to me, Art, and here's what's going to happen in 2007.
		Now, if you want to talk about a fleet of UFOs landing, that's fine.
		We get it every year, but it's likely to be a bonk.
		Now, I'll tell you what, last year was not good.
		I mean, we're going to go through, I'm going to go through some more right now, just to give you an idea, okay?
		Then we'll take a break and we'll start doing 2007 again.
		All right.
		Here's a few examples.
		51.
		Number 51 last year.
		DJ from Chicago.
		Ageism, he said.
		A new youth rights movement gains traction.
		I'm going to be really generous and I'm going to give that a ding.
		I'm going to say ding, ding, ding to that because I can't to many others.
		52.
		Mark from Washington, Hezbollah fires dirty bomb into Israel.
		Bonk, caller from Quebec, number 53.
		A nuclear accident or event causes toxic winds to blow across southern China.
unidentified		Bonk.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I think.
		Now, if I get any of these wrong, feel free to get me.
		54.
		Major earthquake in New York at the mouth of the St. Lawrence River.
		I believe that would be a bonk.
		55.
		Derek from Alberta.
		A new pope will be John Paul II.
		He wasn't dead after all.
		Well, that really is a bonk.
		56, Rob from Arkansas said solar activity will be world news.
		Ding, ding, ding.
		Thank God, here's a ding.
		Congratulations, Rob.
		It certainly has been news.
		57, Dan from Florida, a weather cataclysm, bird flu, and global war.
		Well, we've had a few weather cataclysms, certainly in Southeast Asia.
		No question about that.
		Bird flu, kind of in hiatus.
		Global war, no.
		We're going to call that a bonk.
		58, Bruce in California, collapse of the Democratic Party is imminent.
		Well, that sounds like one of those hopeful things from Bruce in California.
		And looking at the midterm elections, I would say bonk.
		59, Peter from Michigan, some harbor somewhere will be attacked.
		Were there any harbors attacked?
		I don't think so.
		Tentative bonk.
		60.
		Paul from Arizona.
		America will enter civil war in November of 2006.
		Unless I missed it, that's a big bonk.
		61.
		Would be Willow from Manitoba.
		Space technology will give us a medical breakthrough at the cellular level.
unidentified		Hmm.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's tough.
		We have had some medical breakthroughs.
		Gosh, I'm not sure what to do.
		I don't think it was space technology, though.
		I'm going to bonk that.
		62, Mark from Texas, discovery of large vessel in the Bermuda Triangle, bonk.
		63, Jane from Colorado said, an earthquake around The new Madrid Fault causes levees to break, massive flooding in the Mississippi River area, bonk.
		You're getting the idea, right?
		Okay, we'll stop there, and after the break, we will come back and we will proceed with hopefully what will be a record year.
		Now, all of this is dependent on all of you doing your very best.
		Just don't call to call.
		Really, really, really reach into your psychic center and try and get me something that's really going to happen in 2007.
		We will be right back.
		Well, all right, here we go.
		We will resume official recorded numbered predictions at number 53.
		First time caller line, it's Nancy in Las Vegas.
		Welcome.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
unidentified		I'm glad you're back.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		Hi, my prediction for 2007 is that winter hasn't arrived yet and that it's going to really snow really hard and then it's going to melt really fast and so there's going to be a lot of flooding and so like the satellites will be able to pick it up and it'll look like the whole midsection of the United States looks like one big lake.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, now let's get this straight.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're calling from Las Vegas.
unidentified		Right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just over the hill from me.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're not predicting that for us, are you?
unidentified		No, but the thought has run across my mind that it could flood here too.
unidentified		I think it's going to, but I'm going to say it's going to be in the Midwest.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Snow followed by flooding.
unidentified		Yeah, and then it's going to flood, and the satellites will come down.
		I mean, the satellites will be able to pick it up, and then it'll be shown around the world.
		It looks like the whole mid-part of the United States looks like one big lake.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How did this come to you?
unidentified		How did this come to me?
		I'm pretty psychic.
		I tell my family all kinds of stuff, and they sit and laugh at me.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I don't laugh at these things.
		In fact, I wanted to ask because I'm really hoping that the majority of the audience tonight does dig down into their psychic center to give us these predictions.
		And if they do, we're going to do really well.
unidentified		Yes, I hope everybody really psyches into it.
unidentified		I have a lot of predictions, but I can only say one, so that's mine for the just give us your best shot.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, dear.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		You're welcome.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		And oh, sorry, I didn't mean to cut you off.
		Listen, just one more item before I progress.
		There is a picture for the new year up there right now.
		That is my little souvenir.
		That's actually it's a picture of myself and Aaron.
		You'll recognize the background as my office, my little broadcast area here in Nevada.
		And so there you have it, folks.
		I called her my little souvenir last night, just joking, and she said, no, I'm not a souvenir.
		That's like a take-home.
		And I said, well, what did I just do?
		I just brought you home, right?
		She said, no, I'm not a souvenir.
		And she isn't indeed.
		Although she's more than I deserve.
		She's really a sweetheart.
		That's Erin.
		And actually, strictly, her name is A-I-R-Y-N for those of you who might be wondering about that.
		And again, the way she got that name is it was supposed to be Irene with the traditional spelling of Irene.
		And most Filipinos have Americanized first names.
		However, the German priest who baptized her changed the spelling of Irene to A-I-R-Y-N, which would be sort of the German spelling, I guess, of Irene.
		And I look at it, even other Filipinos look at it and say, Aaron.
		So I sort of nicknamed her Aaron, and she likes it, and so that's what I call her.
		And there she is in her little Eskimo outfit.
		Even 70 degrees, keeping the house at 70 or 72 is still cold for her.
		Now, she doesn't normally wear that around the house, but I told you, I think I mentioned the other night that she's got this really cute little Eskimo outfit.
		We had seen a movie called Snow Walker.
		If you get an opportunity, I actually ballyhooed that movie the night we watched.
		I think I told you about it when I was in the Philippines.
		And if you get a chance, see it.
		It's a remarkable movie.
		And the little Eskimo gal in Snowwalker, at one point, this little gal and a fella had crashed in an airplane.
		It's one of those survival movies.
		It was a wonderful one, by the way.
		Snowwalker.
		Don't forget it.
		It's an older movie.
		And she was referring to a little animal that they could catch and eat to stay alive.
		And she just kind of took two fingers along the ground and went like that to demonstrate it.
		And that just tickled Aaron to death.
		And so that's kind of a private little joke between us, Eskimo.
		West of the Rockies, Ryan in Malibu, California, you are on the air.
unidentified		Welcome back to the States.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's good to be here.
unidentified		Let's see.
		It dawns on me that Hillary Clinton will make Bill Clinton her vice presidential candidate.
		Could Hillary...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Could she really do that?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I guess she.
unidentified		I believe she can.
unidentified		He would not be running for president.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but wouldn't that make so many people angry?
unidentified		Of course, but probably it might well not quite fall up to 50.
unidentified		And that's what she would do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, is this a political are you truly reaching into your psychic center, or is it sort of like a horror show in your mind?
unidentified		No, it is definitely a matter of a first in U.S. history.
unidentified		And it is most definitely a psychic.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, well, it's quite a thought.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Thank you very, very much.
		And it is now officially recorded.
		You imagine that Hillary, you have to admit it's possible she could be elected.
		And then turn around and make Bill Clinton the vice president.
		So he would have been then president and vice president?
		That would make a very strange, perhaps even disturbing kind of U.S. history.
		And I hate to admit that sort of constitutional ignorance, but I don't think with what I don't think there would be any prohibition technically, constitutionally, against her doing that.
		Would there?
		Would be a horror show, though.
		Wildcard line?
		You're on the air from Fresno.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
		I visited your area recently.
		I don't get to visit your area very much, just on conventions and stuff, so you don't have much time to see the area.
		But I recently did, and I'm sure your wife will enjoy the countryside around there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, there are so many beautiful areas to show her here, but she has gone now from the tropics, and I mean Sirius tropics, down near the equator, where everything is green, to the opposite side of the world in the middle of our desert.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now, that's quite a change.
unidentified		It's very cold over your way, isn't it?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It has been.
		Well, the day we arrived, the winds were doing 55 and 60 miles an hour.
		The temperature was in the 20s.
		Try and imagine that as your first day greeting in the U.S. Well, get the hard stuff over with, and then everything is downhill from there.
		Well, in fact, it has been, or more likely uphill, as the temperatures have been hitting about 60 degrees or so during the day now.
		So it's much better.
unidentified		Still nice over there.
		I like the Valley of Fire, especially.
		We got to ride bicycles through there and really like that area.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I have so much to show her.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you have a prediction for me?
unidentified		Yes, that the country of India will sign an agreement to administer Iraq for the next six years with options for more years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
		Yes.
		How did this come to you?
unidentified		Well, they've ruled that, administered that country before the years leading up to World War I, you know, under the British Empire, you know, the colony type thing.
unidentified		They were called the government of India.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, it wouldn't be such a bad way for us to get out of the whole thing, would it?
unidentified		No, because they have ruled it before.
		They administered the area.
		I mean, they installed the rupee as the currency in the whole general area, including Arabia and Kuwait.
		You know, before they started getting money from the oil, they were very, very poor people in that Arabian peninsula.
		And so when they ruled Iraq for a few years, they were essentially ruling the whole area.
		And they ruled it with the rupee, and everybody was making money.
		And actually, everybody was kind of happy there for a while.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Officially recorded as prediction number 55.
		Okay.
		Sir?
		John?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		Okay, thanks a lot.
		I appreciate it.
		And I'm sure you guys will enjoy that, all the area.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, yes, thank you very much, and that's exactly what I'm going to do.
		I mean, there are wonders of the world to show, Aaron.
		The Grand Canyon, for example.
		Boulder Dam.
		Las Vegas itself, I have not yet, other than, you know, coming in at the airport and driving at night, she didn't get to see much of Las Vegas, so she hasn't seen that yet.
		And, of course, I've had to be here on the air, so she's not seen a whole lot.
		She's just sort of been adjusting and sleeping.
		And as you know, we both have a cold.
		You can probably hear the cold in my voice.
		It is not possible to take plane flights of the magnitude that I've been taking and not get a cold.
		That's what I figured out.
		Not possible.
		East of the Rockies, Michael, I believe in Boonboro, Maryland.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Listening to you on 630 WMAL.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		Okay.
		It's going to be revealed that the E. coli outbreaks linked with various vegetable produces in the United States are actually terrorist attacks.
		Oh.
		And this has been going on on a major cruise line a few years ago.
		They kind of ramped it up there, and they're bringing it now into the United States.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, my God.
		I never thought of that.
		There were so many problems on cruise lines.
unidentified		Yep.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And I began to wonder about that myself.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you're telling me that was terrorism, and it was just sort of an experimental, let's see if we can get it going deal, huh?
unidentified		That's correct.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That sounds frighteningly logical.
		I hope you're wrong.
		It is prediction number 56.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, thank you, I think.
		That sounds too possible, doesn't it?
		Didn't some of you wonder, I certainly did, about the number of attacks strangely hitting?
		Why cruise lines?
		I mean, all of our cruise lines are...
		They are exceptionally clean.
		They run a very tight ship.
		Sorry about that.
		I mean, they really are wonderfully clean.
		I love cruises.
		And I was not able, nor am I now, to understand why E. coli outbreaks were limited to these cruise lines for a while.
		It was pretty weird.
		Let's go to a wildcard line, Dan in Florida.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		Hey, it's an honor to talk to you again.
		I called you a couple years ago on the Prediction Show, and I don't know.
		It's just something special, I guess.
		Did you get a hit?
		Not that time, no.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		Kind of a crazy prediction last time, but I'm hoping this one will be a ding-ding next year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		57 it shall be.
unidentified		I predict that in the next year there will be some kind of a major advancement in teleportation technology.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, that's quite a leap.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		I'm not sure if it's, you know, what the extent of it will be, but I'm thinking, you know, definitely, you know, moving something from one building to another.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And so you're thinking it would actually be a something, not necessarily a person, but just something.
unidentified		Yeah, there's something.
unidentified		I don't know if it'd necessarily be a living thing or an inanimate object, but something.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Don't you think if they begin to get it right, the airlines are going to buy it up and put it on the shelf with a carburetor that gets 100 miles per gallon?
unidentified		Well, that's possible.
		You know, they said they had a light bulb that would never burn out, and they shelved it.
		Yeah, right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm sure they did.
		All right, buddy.
		It's recorded as number 57, here to there, like that.
		I'm Art Bell.
		Oh, from the minds of my listeners.
		This is so interesting.
		Joe from LaGrange, Kentucky, fast blasts that Bill cannot serve as vice president since he's served two terms as president.
		In other words, if something would happen to Hillary, he could not succeed her.
		Joe, you're right.
		But that doesn't there's still no strict constitutional prohibition, right?
		In other words, if something happened to Hillary...
		It would make Nancy Pelosi president.
		I think.
		I'm not a constitutional expert, but I don't think there's a prohibition on it.
		All right, folks, we're doing predictions for 2007.
		I'm Art Bell.
		We'll be right back.
		2006 was just a terrible year for your predictions.
		Number 64, Castro dies in 2006.
		His successor allies with Mexico, Bonk.
		65, Chad from Washington, Virgin will have joint venture with NASA to dock with the IS at the International Space Station, Bonk.
		66, Donna from Arizona.
		In 2006, President Bush will be hurt, not killed, just hurt.
		Now, I'm going to put a Bonk question mark there because there may have been some incident.
		I don't recall where he fell down or something.
		67, Donald from Washington.
		Astronomers, he said, will find two bodies, each 50 times larger than Earth beyond Pluto.
		Bizarre elliptical orbits explain why they have remained undiscovered.
		Bonk.
		68, disaster will strike the Mars recon orbiter.
		Bonk.
		69.
		NASA implements ET technology in new spacecraft.
		As far as I know, that's a big bonk.
		70, Catherine from California said that Connie Rice is expecting a baby.
		Father is a major figure in the current administration.
		It's not who you think.
		And as far as I know, she has not begun to show, so we'll have to bonk that.
		71, Aaron from California, Pope, will travel to Jerusalem.
		I think...
		Jerusalem.
		I don't think he did.
		I think that's a bonk.
		72.
		Israel will launch a bombing attack of unprecedented magnitude against the West Bank.
		Well, I think that's a ding.
		Ding ding, ding ding.
		A lonely little ding amongst the bonks.
		73, a caller from Massachusetts says restrictions to be imposed on the internet.
		New world order seeks tighter information control.
		Ah, that's really a bonk.
		The internet's still cooking along.
		74, Ray from Texas.
		Bird flu will become a major epidemic in late November of 2006.
		Thank God, that's a bonk.
		75, Blair from Arizona.
		Haha, Blair.
		Mass communication outages, communication satellites will disappear.
		Thank goodness, that's a bonk.
		76, Sue from Ohio, natural disaster or civil uprising prompts the UN to assert control in the United States.
		Yikes.
		That's a bonk.
		All right, back to predictions for 2007.
		Think hard about what you're going to say, folks.
	Wildcard line, Mark in Pennsylvania, you're on the air.
unidentified		Happy New Year, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And to you as well.
unidentified		Always great to bring in the new year with Coast to Coast.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		I hate to break the doom and gloom procession, but I actually have a rare, positive prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That will be rare.
unidentified		I've had a feeling, a sense that something musical will unite the people of many nations in the world in 2007.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yeah, it could be something as simple as an update of We Are the World, which 22 years ago brought a lot of people together to feed the hungry, or raising the stakes just a bit.
unidentified		It could be interstellar sound waves, some kind of musical notes that gives us collective reason to believe that there's life beyond Earth and gives us all a cause to unite, if only for a moment, to realize that we get along better together than warring with one another.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, music could well be the way we communicate with an ET life form of some, you know, it's universal.
unidentified		Yeah, you have so many languages in the world, and it divides us, but music is a unifying language for all of us.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's mathematical.
		It's absolutely universal.
		So that's a pretty cool prediction.
		Thank you.
unidentified		My pleasure.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, take care.
		That, by the way, is recorded as number 58.
		Wildcard Line in Michigan.
		This would be Les.
unidentified		Well, good evening, Guard.
unidentified		I was just sitting here trying to figure out if I've actually been listening to you for 20 years, and I think it might be that long.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thanks for recollecting that, Les.
unidentified		Well, it's getting better and better every year, so good.
		Now, the prediction that was just made will be fulfilled, and if you listen to George's program tomorrow night, you'll find out how.
		If you had accepted the Prediction I made last year between number 85 and 86.
		I had predicted that I would call in tonight to reveal to you and the rest of the world the identity of the Antichrist.
		But you didn't accept it because you said it wasn't fair for me to predict what I was going to do.
		But so then I called George the next night and set things in motion.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I still maintain that position now.
unidentified		I can understand it.
		I can understand.
		But that's not what I'm going to do tonight.
		I'm going to predict that you will realize your true calling in life during the month of April into May.
		And this will happen as the events that I will give to George tomorrow night are fulfilled.
		And it'll be three very distinct events, nothing subjective, three very distinct events in the lives of three very prominent people.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How do you know you're going to get through to George tomorrow night?
unidentified		How did I know I was going to get through to you tonight?
unidentified		If I could describe to you the synchronicity with which my life has been guided for the last two months, you'd be sitting there as amazed as I am.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, unless you can tell me what my true destiny is, then I have nothing to write down.
unidentified		Oh, okay.
		Yeah, I guess that makes sense.
		You're going to lead a movement to help the human race realize that there is no necessity for abortion, and that if we don't come to that realization, humanity is going to destroy itself.
		We have come to a time now where in the last 40 years here in the United States, we have murdered more children than all of the casualties of World War II.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		I will accept and write down that art helps kill abortion.
		I'm absolutely anti-abortion, and I'll tell you why.
		I had an opportunity.
		I think I mentioned to you that in the first trimester, Erin is now in her second trimester.
		In the first trimester, after only, let me see if I can get it right.
		I think that it was 10 weeks.
		At 10 weeks, Erin had an ultrasound, and it was the most remarkable thing that I've ever seen in my whole life.
		I was allowed to go in, and I just sat there, and I looked at the screen, and the very wonderful Philippine doctor that we had pointed at the screen, and unmistakably, you could see this quick little heartbeating.
		That's a poor imitation of a heartbeating.
		It was really only a light, to be honest with you, blinking like a very quick.
		And that was the baby's heartbeating.
		And that was only a few weeks.
		Now, excuse me, but that's life.
		I just, I don't see how you can argue that's not life.
		If we hold life sacred in this country, and we do, then how can we excuse abortion?
unidentified		And this was only a few weeks, folks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, the baby's got a heart.
		It's alive.
		It's beating.
		It's going to be everything it's going to be.
		All the genetics are in place.
		Perhaps not all organs are formed to maturity and so forth and so on, but unmistakably, it's life.
		That's all I'll say about that.
		But I was absolutely astounded.
		Let us go to the, well, let's see, west of the Rockies, I guess.
		That would be Charlie in Ogden, Utah.
unidentified		Hi, how are you doing, Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm just fine.
unidentified		Good, good.
		Glad to have you home.
		My prediction is that you're going to see more gun control because the Democrats have taken both sides of the House.
		That's what I'm putting in.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		More gun control.
		Yes.
		You don't, for one second, though, think that President Bush would sign on, do you?
unidentified		You know.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What you should have said.
		And I'll give you an opportunity to revise this.
		You could say more attempts at gun control.
unidentified		Okay, I'll agree with that.
unidentified		I'll agree.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, you will.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I don't want to make your prediction for you, but I mean, that's correct.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's what will happen.
unidentified		Well, what it is is that I saw what happened when Clinton was in, and I saw the sunset clause of the weapons ban and whatnot.
		And so what I'm thinking is going to happen is that that's going to be reinstituted without a sunset clause this time.
		That's my opinion.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		A good prediction.
		It is number 60.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Thank you.
		I think with the Democrats in control of the House and Senate hanging on by a nail, that there will be more attempts at gun control.
		While President Bush is there, I doubt very much that he would sign them, but they're going to try.
		You know they're going to try.
		Wildcard line number four, Tommy in Seattle, your return.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
		Howdy.
		My prediction is in the last quarter of the year, George Bush, in an effort to improve his historical image for posterity, will announce that the International Space Station is our first orbiting interstellar embassy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Um...
		That's interesting.
		But see, embassies have to be ambassadors to something.
unidentified		Well, it'll be the place where alien life can come without having their little flying saucers confiscated, their bodies bisected, or just scaring the daylights out of everybody on Earth.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, so in other words, they are ambassadors to life that would be approaching earth.
unidentified		Right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I've got it, and it's number 61.
		And that's something the president could do, and it wouldn't cost a penny, and certainly not the billions, hundreds of billions of dollars that the ISS is costing.
		You simply appoint the ISS.
		Pretty good idea, President Bush.
		Wouldn't cost a penny.
		Be great PR as an embassy to the beyond.
		I like it.
		All right.
		First time correction.
		West of the Rockies.
		Somehow, quickly, I punched that line.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Yes, Art.
unidentified		I'd like to make a prediction, if I may.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You may.
unidentified		And that would be that by November of next year, President Bush's ratings will be at least 55% approval due to, directly due to, some policies, some things that will happen in Iraq and Iran in that area.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Name something that could happen.
		Wait a minute.
		Bush ratings, 55% by when?
		November?
unidentified		November.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, what could possibly happen that would do that?
unidentified		I don't know if it would be the capture of bin Laden or something in that area will occur that will be a positive that will either show that he was taking a good course for much of the time.
		I mean, mistakes were making, of course.
		But something will happen along that line.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I would certainly agree that some better outcome, some good outcome in Iraq could cause the president's ratings to significantly go up.
		After all, if Iraq did become some form of democracy or at least was settled in some way and the U.S. was then able to maintain bases in Iraq and stabilize the Mideast, I do think that the president would do well.
		But that's quite a feat, the way things are looking right now.
		So I don't know.
		First time caller line, Anthony in Alpine, California.
		You're on the air.
		Anthony going once, going twice, gone.
		I hate to see somebody wait and then not get on the air.
		Wildcard line, Mel, Flint, Michigan, you're on the air.
unidentified		Yeah, Art.
		Glad to have you back.
		Thank you.
		I think it's very eminent, and so I'm going to drop a dime on it for this year.
		I think they may start rebuilding Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, really?
unidentified		I think it's eminent.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, what makes you believe that?
unidentified		Well, for one thing, it's predicted in the scriptures.
		Of course.
		And with the Mayan calendar thing and with the increase of earthquakes and all these catastrophes, I think it's all tying together.
		And I think it's the time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So this is a psychic prediction or is it sort of a religious wish?
unidentified		Intuitive.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		I'll accept intuitive.
		That's part of the psychic world.
		No question about it.
		All right, my friend.
		Officially recorded as number 63.
		Now, if you got a hit like that, we'd have to have you on for a whole lot more.
unidentified		I've got a whole lot more.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm sure you do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much.
unidentified		Yes.
		Thank God.
		Right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		All right.
		All the way east of the Rockies now to Tim in Arkansas.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
unidentified		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		Art, I've got to tell you, this is kind of weird for me.
		I'm not a psychic as far as telling the future or mind reading or talking to the dear departed or anything.
		My abilities are kind of hard to explain because they deal with predicting motion in other people.
		It's very instinctual.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Motion in other people?
unidentified		What do you mean?
		Like, I can walk through a crowd and not hit a single person because I know how the people around me are moving.
		Same thing goes with traffic.
		I know when someone's going to pull out of a driveway or change lanes.
		And it's so instinctual, I thought it was natural until I was in my mid-20s when I realized that not everyone had this ability.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's a psychic ability.
unidentified		Yeah, it seems to me.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		So whatever.
		What would be your prediction?
unidentified		Well, I told you that to let you know.
		So when I get a premonition about something happening in the future, I get really unnerved because I'm not normally not part of my ability.
		But here's my prediction.
		There is a super collider being built in France.
		It's called CERN, C-E RN.
		You may have heard of it.
		It's going to be operational in early of 2007.
		This thing is designed to create nano-black holes.
		And I know this because I woke up with a dream of the Earth being swallowed about three or four months ago, and I didn't know what was going on.
		And so I did some research and gradually found more information, more information.
		It led me to this, learning about this super collider.
		And I think that's what I saw.
		I don't think the Earth is going to be swallowed in 2007, but the chain of events.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know that's what I just wrote down.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I wrote down CERN black hole swallows Earth.
unidentified		Well, you can.
		I mean, I don't think it will happen in 2007, but I think the chain of events to create it will start in 2007.
		Hmm.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, if, you know, they're saying that a small black hole, a miniature black hole, would be benign, that it would disappear virtually instantly, not swallowing anything at all.
		Now, of course, there's always a margin for error.
		It could be they would create a black hole and it would absorb everything.
		That would be horrible.
unidentified		Right, because the worst case scenario, the worst case scenario has the Earth being swallowed in about 11 minutes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yeah.
		That's kind of scary.
		That'll wake you up.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I do worry a bit about science.
		And, you know, when the scientist has done all his work and he's poised over the button, we all know he's going to push it.
		You know, if there's a moment's hesitation where he thinks, well, you know, hmm, could this black hole swallow Earth?
unidentified		Nah.
		Pushes the button.
		That really falls into the OOP scenario.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It absolutely does, yes.
		Okay, well, I surely do hope you're wrong, but I did write that down, and I'd rather not erase it.
		So I'm leaving CERN black hole swallows Earth.
unidentified		That'll work.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Number 64, and I thank you for your call.
unidentified		Thank you, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		It'd be a terrible way to go, wouldn't it?
		Especially if you're about 11 minutes, you know, the Earth just sort of collapses inward to this black hole that then sort of wanders aimlessly around the universe.
		What a cheery note.
unidentified		I'm Art Bell.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The official, the only official recorded numbered predictions made by you for the year 2007.
		We do it two nights only annually, and this is the second night of those predictions.
		So if you can dig deep into your psychic center and you've got something that'll really cook, black holes swallowing us.
		I don't like that one, but I'll take it.
		Anything you think is going to happen in 2007 that you really psychically believe is going to occur, grab the phone and get it recorded right in front of the whole world.
		I'm Art Bell, and in a moment, Coast to Coast AM continues back to biz.
		And it's with Catherine in Northern California.
		Your turn.
unidentified		Hi, are you talking to me?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're Catherine.
		Northern California, right?
		Okay, that's you.
unidentified		Yes, I have a prediction for 2007.
unidentified		I predict that one of the U.S. Supreme Court justices will resign in shame owing to a personal scandal, a shocking scandal that comes out and becomes public knowledge this year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		That's it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You don't actually, I guess I shouldn't ask.
unidentified		What?
unidentified		Know who it is?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What it would be.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, I don't want to know who.
unidentified		I don't know who it is, and I don't know what it would be either.
unidentified		And I know shockingly little about the U.S. Supreme Court justices, too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, then I'll ask this.
unidentified		How did it come to you?
		Well, I was trying to think of a prediction.
		I was just doing, like you said, you know, going into my inner self and trying to come up with a prediction for next year.
		And I came up with all these weird ones, but finally this one seemed like something that actually could happen and came to me yesterday morning.
		So it took me this long to get through to you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, bless your heart for the effort.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And as a result of it, it is now number 65.
unidentified		Great.
		Well, thank you.
		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're very welcome.
		And Happy New Year to you.
		There.
		It's not 11-11 anymore.
		It's now just 11-12.
		I just happened to look up, and it was 11-11.
		I thought, hmm.
		That'll bring some emails.
		The New Year is now racing toward the U.S. West Coast, and it's going to be interesting to see yet another year arrive.
		And I'm hoping that this coming year is, well, it has a lot of promise, of course, for me.
		Even at my age, I've got a youngster on the way.
		Actually, I've got one as a wife, and then I've got a youngster on the way.
		And that would certainly be a great joy for me.
		I just can't tell you it would be a gigantic joy.
		And, you know, I can start to feel the baby now.
		It's just beginning to protrude a little bit and show itself as a baby.
		It's pretty exciting stuff.
		Anyway, onward, let's go to west of the Rockies, I guess, and in New Mexico.
		Good morning.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi there.
unidentified		I'm so happy for you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, thank you.
unidentified		For colds, lots of garlic and olive oil and cayenne.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy, this last year has been the year of colds for me.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'll tell you what.
unidentified		That's what I take every day, a couple of teaspoons over potatoes and toast.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I know there are people who swear by it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The hotter, the better, right?
unidentified		Listen, may I sing this?
		Midnight in the desert.
		Jeanne Stars across the sky.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I generally, as a rule, don't allow singing.
unidentified		I know, but that captures the time, the place, the space with the art bell.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
		It does, of course.
		And Crystal Gale totally nailed it.
		I don't know how she did it.
unidentified		High picture.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But she just, yeah, she totally nailed it.
unidentified		Can I ask you a question?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Sure.
unidentified		I'm revealing my ignorance, but what is the kingdom of Nye?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It is Nye County, Nevada.
		Oh, and that's spelled N-Y-E.
		Nye County, Nevada.
unidentified		I have it spelled down here like that, but I'm going, science fiction?
unidentified		What?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, reality.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now, your prediction.
unidentified		Yes, sir.
unidentified		Gold will break through 1,000.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, my God.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Ding, ding, ding.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know what?
		You could be right.
		And if you are, that's really bad news for the economy.
unidentified		Well, you may want to know why, but then I'd be going into another.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, no, go ahead.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, well, I don't want another prediction, but if you want to tell me why it's...
unidentified		Joe's 41.
		Leviathan is the sea monster.
		And you can look at it as a military monster, Reed submarine.
		And that's going to start it.
		And we have 80.
		Russia has 52.
		China has 69.
		Israel has three.
		And Iran has three.
		Oh, and by the way, North Korea has 88, up from 26 last year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What are we talking about here?
		I missed what we're talking about.
		28, what?
unidentified		Submarines.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, submarines, okay.
unidentified		Yeah, and the source is the 2007 almanac, military balance.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So this is going to be military action.
unidentified		Yes, and I think it's read Job 41, Leviathan, and just read submarine.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Got it.
unidentified		Oh, my goodness.
unidentified		But I'm just so happy for you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
		It would be a contrast.
		If this year is a good one, it certainly would be a contrast to this past year.
		And it was full of the biggest highs, the biggest lows, the absolute biggest lows a human being can experience, short of one.
		Actually, it's worse than one's own death, you know, to lose a lifelong partner.
		It's worse than death.
		It would be much easier to die yourself.
		And then to find love again, and then to create life.
		And then everything else that went along with it, which entailed a move to the other side of the world.
		It was a hell of a year.
		That's all I can say.
		I don't know how yours was, but mine definitely rocked and rolled.
		Let's go to somebody calling themselves Agent X in Anchorage, Alaska.
unidentified		Good morning, Art, and happy new year from the great land of Alaska.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		Hey, I got a gut feeling that the researchers, could be either the Mongolian or folks that are not Mongolian researchers are going to find the grave of Temu Chin, the great Khan, Genghis Khan, this year coming up here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yes.
		And I base that on, I've been fortunate.
		I'm a journalist and covered the military.
		I was able to go with our military forces.
		Most people wouldn't realize it, but Alaska and Mongolia have a sister state relationship.
		And I was able to talk to many of their senior military folks and senior politicians.
		And during the time of the Soviet occupation, which lasted up into almost 95, because the Russians didn't even have the money to take their forces out of there to land, the Soviets had kept the area where Genghis Khan's grave is thought to be, an area northeast of Ulaanbatar.
		And that area is now open.
		I was actually allowed to go in there and go to one of their former air bases that was there.
		But there are all sorts of apocryphal tales that all of the people in the burial party were killed when he was buried and that they used herds of horses to sort of pound over the ground.
		And then soldiers were left there until the trees grew up around there.
		And those tales sort of seem to be apocryphal, but the Mongols oftentimes would leave these great treasures for the Khans in places that wouldn't be ransacked.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So if they find his grave, will they find great treasure?
unidentified		Well, I think what we'll do is it's the beginning of the resurgence of a Mongol empire.
		not one that's conquering, but the rise of the Mongol people to their right state.
		Because if you look at, you know, most people think that...
		Yes, they did.
		As far as everybody can tell, yes, he was.
		And there's different reasons as to why he died.
		He may have died falling off a horse or during a hunt or during an attack on the Western Zia Chinese.
		And it's not known, but it is pretty much known that this area that was formerly kept secret under the Soviets, and even before that was kept as a restricted area amongst the Mongol people, the Trail of Crumbs is certainly leading to that area, and I think something's going to happen this year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Got it.
		And it's officially recorded as prediction number 67 to the fourth wildcard line.
		John in Wisconsin, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hi, Arda.
		How are you doing?
		How are you doing?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just fine.
unidentified		I actually have, I have to tell you a story before we start here.
		I was so excited to get on.
		I just fell down a flight of stairs and I hung up the phone.
		I had to call back.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You fell down a flight of stairs?
unidentified		And my phone calls, and I lost my spot in line.
		I called about an hour ago.
		I couldn't believe it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, then, careful when calling this program.
unidentified		Well, you can see how I can get so excited.
unidentified		I mean, it's a great program.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, it is a very different kind of program.
unidentified		Now, the reason I'm calling here is I have a prediction here.
unidentified		I've had a recurring dream for the past three weeks every night that there will be crop circle-like images will appear on the White House lawn.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That would be so cool.
unidentified		I don't understand it.
		I can't get it out of my dreams.
		I don't know what it is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, I'm definitely recording this.
		Crop circles on White House lawn.
		I love it.
		South Lawn?
unidentified		What?
unidentified		Yeah, South Lawn, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
		South Lawn.
		Okay.
		That would be very, very hard for the administration to explain in any way at all, unless they sort of said we did it as a joke.
		Otherwise, there would be no way to explain it because there are very few places as carefully guarded as the White House, right?
unidentified		Yeah, I mean, there's no way to get on there.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And there is video surveillance and all the rest of that.
		So, yeah, that would be a good one.
		Boy, I hope you're right.
unidentified		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, that's number 68.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And I don't know if it's worth falling down a flight of stairs, but I appreciate the effort.
unidentified		Hey, worth every stair.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Take care.
		I don't know.
		Falling down a whole flight of stairs.
		East of the Rockies, it would be Ben in Portland, Maine.
		Hi, Ben.
unidentified		Hey, Art.
unidentified		How are you doing tonight?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm just fine.
unidentified		I had a vision come to me the other day, and that vision is that the U.S. government is going to become aware, and they're going to regulate and heavily tax all the millions of dollars that are traded hands every day in internet gambling.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
		You know, I wonder, I've Been wondering why internet gambling is legal.
		Do you have any thoughts on that?
		I have no idea.
		In other words, gambling, for the most part, other than what, New Jersey, a few river boats on the Mississippi and here in Nevada, is pretty much not legal.
		So the Internet comes along, and now everybody, if they want to, can gamble, literally, on the Internet.
		And I don't, they've got to either do one of two things.
		They've got to outlaw it, or as you point out, they would have to tax it.
unidentified		It's also easier to transfer large amounts of money to friends over the Internet without anyone knowing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Absolutely.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		As much of a control freak as our government is, I'm surprised they've let the Internet go as far as they have without clamping down.
unidentified		Me too.
unidentified		All right, buddy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's recorded.
		That is also a very, very interesting one.
		Now, you could go a little further and suggest they will begin taxing Internet usage altogether, and I'm kind of surprised they haven't.
		I'm very pleased that they have not yet done that.
		It has allowed the Internet to become a wonder of the world.
		Now, is that overstating what the Internet is?
		I think it is approaching a wonder of the world.
		Really, honestly, I do.
		Let's consider what it's done.
		Remember the days of the Encyclopedia Salesman knocking on your door saying, sir, this is for your son and daughter's education.
		You have absolutely got to have a set of encyclopedias.
		Now, you've got to be old enough to remember that, but you don't get that knock anymore.
		They don't sell encyclopedias because we've got the Internet.
		You can talk to anybody anywhere in the world.
		You can transfer information at the speed of light.
		You can video conference with, as Erin does, her family on the other side of the world without any cost, going right past the phone companies.
		And phone companies can't provide a picture anyway.
		So the internet is doing things that I think rise almost to a wonder of the world.
		That said, going west of the Rockies, Lila, I believe, in California.
unidentified		Hi.
		My prediction is that Jimmy Carter will negotiate an amicable treaty with North Korea.
		And not necessarily with the United States, maybe with the UN.
		Okay.
		That's it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's it.
unidentified		How did you come up with that?
		I don't know.
		I know that Jimmy Carter, he's done some pretty impressive negotiations in the past, and I just think it's going to be a big year for him, and maybe he can convince them.
		Put down the nukes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Put down the nukes.
		All right.
		It is recorded.
		Thank you very much.
		Jimmy Carter negotiates a treaty with North Korea.
		The predictions we are getting this year are far better.
		Now, I don't know if they'll come true, but they're just sort of far better in character than the ones we had last year.
		We will review.
		I need to get through them.
		So we will review some more of the bonks coming up here after the break.
		Wildcard line, Jason in North Minneapolis, you're on the air.
unidentified		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you.
unidentified		My prediction is in a month and a half, the solar flare is going to hit the earth and the poles are going to shift.
		The magnetic force field of the earth is going to shift and people's minds aren't going to be the, Odd behavior.
		It's not going to be good.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, so that would be in the month of February.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A giant solar flare hits affecting life.
unidentified		Affecting the poles, the magnetic force field of the Earth.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But that would also then affect biological life.
unidentified		Planets also, yeah, they won't be able to tell which way is north, and it'll confuse them, and it'll stress them out, and they'll die off also.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I think at this point we can expect almost anything from the sun.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We're at the dead bottom of the solar cycle, and weird things are happening.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, my friend, it is recorded as number 71.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you, and have a good night.
		This is kind of a special time.
		It's not that often that, you know, regular people get, I mean, they bring plenty of psychics on the air.
		You're going to hear plenty of them in the next couple of weeks or so predicting this and that.
		But I have faith in all of you.
		I have faith in this audience.
		So many of you are tuned in beyond the normal, the normal person.
		I mean, you have psychic abilities simply because you're interested in this sort of thing.
		So your mind is a little more open than the average.
		First time caller line, Matthew from Lexington, Kentucky.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Wonderful to speak with you, sir.
unidentified		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you.
unidentified		Mine, I agree.
		The predictions this year have been just great.
		You're right.
		There's a lot of good character, especially with all the negativity that's been going on.
		It's nice to hear people really digging deep.
		Mine is not all that fantabulous, but I do believe it will become true, and that is a large earthquake somewhere in America in an unlikely location, possibly secretive area, will occur to really wake people up to, you know, we have earthquakes from every so often.
		That just really shakes people up.
		Excuse the sun.
		And gets them thinking about earthquakes and then subsequent flooding.
		And I'm originally from western Kentucky, and a lot of people don't talk much about the New Madrid Fault, but it's way overdue.
		And then with a lot of the weather changes, animal behavior, and just from my little knowledge of the seismic activity that's been going on just in the last year and a half, I don't see how it can last much longer.
		But then I just feel like somewhere else in America that it's going to, not so much there, but somewhere else, it's going to really just shake, rattle, and roll.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, so you're not thinking necessarily the New Madrid, but in an unexpected area.
unidentified		Right, because what makes me try to explain it logically is the New Madrid, but that completely goes off my radar that thinks it's somewhere else.
unidentified		I actually thought this was going to occur more in the later part of 06, but you know, that didn't occur.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I now have it officially recorded, Matthew, and I thank you for the call.
unidentified		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, take care.
		We are doing recorded, numbered predictions, public predictions.
		So if you get it right, millions of people know it.
		30 minutes or so to the new year here on the West Coast.
		I'm Art Bell.
		Here I am.
		Let me review a few more of the majorly bonked predictions for 2006 before the break.
		Randall from Alberta, this would be 77, said Benjamin Netanyahu becomes new Israeli leader, launches preemptive strike against nuclear facilities in Iran.
		Logical, but nevertheless a bonk.
		Janice from Illinois, two of our four living former presidents will die due to natural causes.
		A third will lapse into dementia.
		Well, close, but a bonk.
		79, George from California.
		Al-Zakari will not be caught.
		Well, bonk.
		Linda, battle will be fought on American soil.
		A big one?
		No, bonk.
		81, something cataclysmic happens in 2006.
		Has to do with Turkey.
		The event culminates in the assassination of someone high in our government.
		Well, see, I wouldn't let her say who it was, so that's a bonk.
		Anyway, there were no big assassinations.
		82, Paul in Ohio, Atlanta, Georgia will rise to new prominence.
		I guess that's a bonk.
		I don't know that Atlanta has come into some giant new prominence.
		83, Patty from Nevada, Mexico will go to war with us over the border fence.
		Bonk.
		84, caller from Toronto, human race will discover their power within and become more ethical.
		The cause, none other than the caller's new book.
		Bonk.
		85, asteroid impact.
		Bonk.
		86, Bill from California said earthquakes in California, solar flares cause auroras in South America.
		Bonk.
		We did have them, but not down that far.
		87, a caller from Ohio, AMD, will release a 6 gigahertz chip.
		I'm going to tentatively ding that.
		I think we are up to 6 gigahertz, but I'm not sure.
		I think we're there, so ding.
		88, Joseph in Alabama, fire at Smithsonian Institution.
		Something strange will be discovered in the aftermath.
		I believe that's bonk.
		89, Elizabeth from Washington, the younger British prince will be king.
		I think that's a ding, right?
		The younger British prince will be king.
		I think that's a ding.
		Tell me if I'm wrong.
		No, I have to.
		Let's see.
		Ivan from New Zealand, 90, a major figure in the British royal family will pass away.
		I think I'm putting a question mark there.
		Was there a major figure in the British royal family that passed away?
		I'll hold judgment on that.
		91, Cat from New Jersey, widespread disease in America, Atlanta, very important because of the headquarters of the CDC and the infected masses believe that the cure lies there.
		Well, it certainly would, but it didn't.
		Bonk.
		I'll go here and just do one more.
		Anthony from Florida.
		The east coast of the U.S. will be hit by a tidal wave.
		Thank goodness.
		That's a bonk.
		All right.
		In a moment, we will continue with predictions for 2007.
	All right.
	Here we go.
	Prediction number 73 is going to be next, and it's going to be made by Chris in Denver, Colorado.
	Hi, Chris.
unidentified		Yes, sir.
		Hi, Art.
		I have a prediction about a new kind of music coming out in 2007.
		I think it's on the frequency of the whales.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
		What a unique prediction.
		Another really good one.
		A new kind of music.
		We're due, by the way, for something new based on whale music.
unidentified		Yeah, I think it'll have a message that will be interpreted in the music, in the human language, and what they have to tell us through the mainstream, either be on the internet or in the mainstream.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy, I'm telling you, buddy, yours is right in there with so many of the other ones.
		We're getting some wonderful predictions this year, and this is one of them.
		Thank you.
unidentified		Thanks.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, take care.
		That really is pretty cool.
		We're overdue, aren't we, for a shift in the music world?
		And what an unusual shift that would be if we began to understand what the whales are singing at a higher level, that is to say.
		Let me look at some of these.
		People are asking, by the way, in droves, whether I'm screening calls.
		And the answer is, yes, indeed, I am screening calls.
		There was not enough time to get the phone lines in here so that I could directly pick them up.
		So we are doing call screening.
		And I don't have the normals set up here.
		In other words, I'm not playing my own music and that sort of thing.
		The board ops are doing that.
		So just so you know, on the record, just as we were doing from Manila, because of the time element, the network had, bless their hearts.
		And I want to thank Bill Hickey and Trevor Oliver and a lot of other people who, once, and I gave them very, very short notice that I was going to return to the U.S., they got up here like that and got enough of a setup so That I could get on the air when I got back home because we had these critical prediction shows to do.
		So the answer is yes, we are screening calls, and I suspect that we'll get back to the norm, for me, anyway, eventually, and get the lines in and all the rest of it.
		But just for the sake of laying it out the way it is, we are screening calls.
		Kevin in St. Cloud, Florida, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hey, Art.
unidentified		How you doing?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm very well indeed.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		All right.
		Hey, I love y'all's show.
		Y'all is just great.
		I've been listening to y'all for a long time.
		We missed Whitley Streeber.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, guess what, then?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I've got some news for you.
unidentified		Okay, what's that?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		This coming Thursday, Whitley is going to be on the air with me because George is taking a night off, so I'll be here Thursday night, Friday morning.
unidentified		Fantastic.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Guest?
		Whitley Streeber.
		Yeah, okay.
unidentified		All right.
		Hey, here's my prediction, Art.
		Check this out.
		On June 6th, at 3.58 p.m., 34 seconds into the deal, there's going to be an earthquake.
		And it's going to happen in the Philippines.
		I'm glad you're out of there.
		And that's like on the Chinese calendar.
		It's like they got, I think it was like March 21st for some odd reason.
		I don't know.
		But it's June 6th.
		It's going to happen.
		And it's a crazy deal.
		I don't know.
		I get these things.
		I told George Nori about it, about the, you know, the tsunami happening.
		What it did was it was doing a snapping effect on our, I want to say the North and the South Pole.
		And what it does, all of a sudden, there's this snapping of this Arctic shell.
		There's like six of them in Canada, and one of them is snapped off now.
		So it's pretty well established in our thing about what's going to happen.
		It's really a dire effect that's happening.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, well, I've got it, and I hope to hell you're wrong.
		The people of the Philippines have had enough happen to them recently.
		The current situation, there are communications in the Philippines right now, but it's very spotty.
		And as you know, there was a large earthquake in Taiwan, and that cut all of the fiber cables that went to the Philippines.
		So communications are being rerouted, but they're spotty, not good at all.
		And with all the typhoons that have hit the Philippines, the earthquakes, the tsunamis, it's just, it's been a rough time for the Philippines, and I got to experience most of it while I was there.
		So I certainly don't want to have more happening, but that part of the world, undeniably, is very, very active.
		Let's go to the international line, Nova Scotia, all the way to Nova Scotia with Al.
		Hi, Al.
unidentified		All right, how's she going, boy?
unidentified		How you doing, buddy?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		Buddy, well, my prediction is there's going to be a well-known Canadian politician who belongs to the Liberal Party will be revealed as an alien, man Leah Gray.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, so he's already in office now, right?
unidentified		He certainly is.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So you're telling me a highly placed Canadian government official is an alien?
unidentified		Absolutely.
		He's a gray.
		Manly a gray.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		I'll go along with that.
		And that would be quite a revelation, but I bet it's going to be a bonk.
unidentified		Well, I've heard quite a few shows where, you know, you talked about alien civilizations and alien abductions and quite a few things.
		So, you know, I think, you know, that it will reveal itself this upcoming year.
		You know, I know it sounds bizarre, but I think it will come back.
		He will be outed.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		He'll be outed.
unidentified		Absolutely.
unidentified		And the thing is, if you look closely, you can tell by the shape of his head and by the size of his eyes, he is a gray.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I will be watching your politicians closely.
unidentified		Yes, and remember, Manly is a gray.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Well, there's got to be a little humor in some of these, right?
		East of the Rockies, John in Illinois, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hey, Ars.
		Good to hear you.
		At least JC hasn't called you tonight yet, huh?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's true.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's true.
unidentified		My prediction is under the new Mexican leadership, the guy taking over after Fox, I think the lawlessness is going to break out.
unidentified		There's going to be a chain reaction, and it's going to cause illegal immigration to double from $12 million to $24 million.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, my God.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Illegal immigration doubles from Mexico.
unidentified		Yes.
		Which causes that, you know, they send back $265 billion a year to their families.
		If it doubles and they hold some of the money here, maybe some of that money would stay in the United States.
		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm not against having Mexicans come to the U.S. and work.
		We really do need them.
		They do an awful lot of good agricultural work for us.
		I said this last night.
		I'm going to say it again tonight.
		That doesn't mean we cannot secure our borders.
		We can have our cake and eat it, too.
		I just wish that we'd get to the eating part.
		We need to secure the borders.
		I'm really on board with that.
unidentified		But if the police in Mexico can't secure their own states, that's why I'm seeing the domino effect of the increase in just coming and doubling.
		Man, happy new year, Art.
		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year to you as well, sir.
		Thank you very, very much for the call.
		By the way, coming up after midnight, I am going to let my new wife, Erin, say a few words to you.
		I have no idea what she'll say, but I'm going to let her say a few words of greeting in the new year.
		This is, what, her third day in the United States.
		She comes from a rather remote area of Mindanao.
		And so she went from that all her life.
		She's a school teacher, you know.
		And she went from that to six months in Manila, which was courtesy of me, you know, in the condominium.
		I took her from Mindanao to Manila.
		And I did that for a number of reasons.
		One of them, of course, is that I could get a broadcast line there.
		And that kind of helped her out a little bit in making the jump to what she has now done in coming to the United States.
		But my goodness, from where she was to where she is now is a remarkable change.
		And that's an understatement, believe me.
		So she's three days in the USA, and I'll be kind of interested myself to see what she has to say.
		Totally unplanned.
		We'll see what she says.
		She promised she would say a few words.
		First time caller line, Bosco in South Texas.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Hey, Art.
unidentified		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Same to you.
unidentified		Well, let's see.
unidentified		I saw a major tanker oil leak in the Pacific.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy, we don't need any more of those, but you believe there's...
unidentified		I'm seeing somewhere close to Hawaii.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		Well, I hope that doesn't happen.
		Yours is prediction number 77.
unidentified		All right.
unidentified		Have a good day.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, Bosco.
		Thank you very much for the call.
		Major oil tanker leak in Pacific.
		You know, we've got to get going with energy, some sort of alternative energy, because as we continue to pump oil in pipelines and carry it in tankers, the inevitable, the inevitable will continue to occur.
		West of the Rockies, again in Alaska, Frenchie, hello.
unidentified		How you doing, all right?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm fine, sir.
unidentified		Good.
		I'd like to say a couple things first.
		Thank you for shutting that woman down on your singing thing.
		And anybody that's such a fruit loop that's going to say, yeah, I can predict people that can change lanes and backing out of their driveway and stuff like that, any fool can see that because that's what directional lights are for and backup lights are for.
		So that's the way it helps.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I know, but I think he was going past the signaling part of it and knowing what they would do.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		There are people who are pretty good at that kind of thing.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		My prediction is going to be that Art Bell, that will be you, sir, is going to stop being a pansy about this mass consciousness thing, and you're going to start using yourself in your program to try to get things done, like, for instance, securing the border, stop abortion, have some UFO sightings over the White House, little things like that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I can tell you right now, I can tell you right now, buddy, that you're off in Fruit Loopville yourself because I am committed not to use it unless we're virtually looking at the end of the world.
unidentified		Yeah, but if you use it for good things, I mean, a UFO over the White House isn't a bad thing.
unidentified		Securing the border is a good thing, okay?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but see, the reason that I'm not using it, sir, if not yet clear to you, is because I don't understand how the power works.
		Now, let's take your examples.
		A UFO over the White House could go wrong in a lot of ways.
		For example, we could shoot it down.
		The White House is very sensitive about unknown flying objects over the White House.
		They don't like it.
		They have missiles ready to shoot, you know.
		So that could go wrong.
		And what was the other one you said?
		The border.
unidentified		Yeah, but the thing is, if you shoot it over the White House, how do you cover that up?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you don't.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But suppose that would start a war with some other superior race of folks.
unidentified		You do a mass consciousness thing where nobody gets shot down and no wars get started.
		You know what I'm saying?
		Right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, but see, the problem is you cannot guarantee that.
		That's the problem.
		You simply cannot guarantee that.
		So there you go.
		I don't know what to say to you except that bonk.
		I'm bonking that right now.
		But I'll leave it down.
		Actually, I'll leave it right there.
		East of the Rockies, Frank in Queens, New York.
unidentified		Yes, this is E. Frank from Astoria Queens, New York City.
		Yeah, I just want to make a prediction for 2007.
		You know, my prediction is that they will discover a secret document in Saddam Hussein's home in Tikrit, Iraq, that will prove that one of President George W. Bush's ancestors wrote the book of Daniel from the Old Testament in the 14th century.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I can't write all this down.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're going to have to capsulize this for me.
unidentified		Well, they're going to find a secret document, Art, that will prove that one of the ancestors of President Bush wrote the book of Daniel.
		He had a premonition that these things would come to light in the 21st century.
		And it was written.
		And even though they state that the book of Daniel was written in the first century or before that time, they're going to discover that it was basically submitted and changed around in the 14th century.
		And they're going to find that it was written in an English cottage during that Renaissance period.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, this is a pretty wild prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And I am rather curious how you came up with it.
unidentified		Well, Art, you know, I usually meditate, And there was a revelation that was given to me by the Holy Spirit.
unidentified		And in my dream state, the Holy Spirit spoke to me and stated this in my mind.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, I'm short on time.
		The Holy Spirit will do as a source.
		That said, before I can come back and talk with you again, actually, Erin will be here.
		It's going to be midnight.
		It's going to be the new year here on the West Coast.
		And then she heads toward Alaska and Hawaii.
		So, folks, get ready.
		Here it comes.
		I'm Art Bell.
		That's right.
		From the high desert, here is Art Bell.
		Happy New Year, everybody.
		Boy, they've got, I'm telling you, it went off in Las Vegas, and it's still going off.
		What an incredible celebration is going on right now in Las Vegas, Nevada.
		Holy smokes, they're going berserk.
		Listen, I'm going to take a moment out here, and I'm going to let Erin, who's, what, three or four days now only in the United States, say hello to all of you.
		So it'll be a little clumsy because I've got to put this mic on her head.
		So here we go.
unidentified		Hello.
		Happy, happy new year to everyone.
		Hope this year, 2007, is a good year to all of us.
		So thank you so much for your email, for sending us your welcome home for art and also for me.
		And especially for those who send the email about baked potato.
		It's crazy, but it's true.
		I'm really craving for baked potato.
		And tonight we made our own baked potato during our dinner and we made it.
		And so thank you so much for that.
		And once again, happy, happy new year.
		Put smile in your face for the next long year.
		So thank you so much.
		And happy, happy new year, especially to my sister Sharon, Carl, and his family.
		So that's all.
		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		There she is.
		That's Erin.
		In a moment, back to predictions for the year that is now on its way to Hawaii and Alaska.
		All right.
		Back to it.
		We go.
		We're doing predictions for 2007.
		Let me begin reviewing some more so we can get through all of them before the night is over from last year, a very bad year.
		Number 93, Dan from Texas says a seismic event near El Paso reroutes the Rio Grande River.
		That's certainly a bonk.
		94, federal government temporarily relocates to Denver because of Mideast crisis.
		No, too much snow.
		Bonk.
		95, a cure for AIDS comes out of Europe.
		That is a bonk.
		96, 2006 will be the start of the tribulation period.
		Well, that's a little subjective, but I'm going to bonk it.
		97, world peace.
		That's, I'm afraid, always going to be a bonk.
		98, Mike from Utah.
		Three major earthquakes in Northern California between March and October of 2006.
		Get out now.
		Bonk.
		99, caller from Indiana.
		Art Bell mentors and or adopts a 14-year-old Native American child.
		Yes, bonk.
		100, Rick from Florida, lost civilization will be discovered in the western U.S. Bonk, as far as I know.
		101, Josie from Kansas, population of Central and South America is compelled to come to America.
		American soldiers mow them down with machine guns.
		Oh my God, bonk.
		102, Joyce from Massachusetts, AIDS mutation in nuclear exchange decimates population.
		Bonk.
		103, caller from Colorado.
		Art Bell will do more than three shows per month in 2006.
		Well, ding, ding, ding, more than three shows a month.
		Yes, I have been certainly doing that.
		So we will ding that one.
		Congratulations in a sea of bonks.
		104, Jim from New York says the Dalai Lama will pass in 2006.
		World peace will be attained briefly as the media focuses on his death.
unidentified		Bonk.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		See, it was a bad year.
		105, Linda in Indiana in the first week of May 2006.
		Mount Denali will explode, taking Yellowstone with it.
		The Mid-Continent Rift will open.
		God, a bonk.
		106, Jason from Oregon, Michio Kaku will confirm that time travel to the past and perpetual motion go hand in hand.
		And that's certainly a bonk.
		107, Brenda from Alberta, Canada.
		Super drought in North America.
		Farmers will be devastated.
		Food prices will skyrocket.
		And there was a second prediction, which shouldn't have been allowed.
		Secrets of Coral Castle revealed.
		And that's a bonk.
		Now, there was some drought, certainly in North America, but not anything that drove food prices through the roof.
		Oh, let me keep going here.
		In 2006, Art Bell will produce a new 30-minute radio program three to five times a week.
		That is a bonk.
		That was 108.
		Okay, I'll stop there for now, and we will continue with predictions.
		It was a bad, bad year, wasn't it?
		For 2007, I've got a feel.
		We're doing much, much better.
		I have a feeling we're doing better is what I guess I ought to say.
		Diana in Fort Myers, Florida, you're on the air.
unidentified		Art, I love your wife.
		She's a sweetheart.
		And happy to her, too.
		Bless her heart.
		But I wanted to say, and I'm serious in this, not since the time of the Grapes of the Raft, you know, the John Steinbeck movie, but I see a drought, a major drought, a dust bowl from Texas all the way up into the Canadian borderline even.
		And people will be displaced and moved because of it.
		But the flip side is where you're at, it's going to become a wetland with even new rivers.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, my new wife, she'd enjoy that.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		Happy New Year to you, sweetie.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And the very same to you.
		Take care.
		That was prediction number 80.
		All right.
		We're going to try and squeeze as many as we can in.
		Anthony in Alpine, California, first time caller line.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
		Welcome back to the U.S. Thank you, sir.
		I'm listening to you on Streamlink.
		And my prediction for 2007 is a large number of new record high temperatures across the U.S. brought on by global warming.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I'm afraid that one is absolutely going to occur.
		So it's a safe bet you're making, and that actually is a concern to me because I live here in the desert that regularly experiences some of the highest temperatures.
		You know, I'm not far from Death Valley.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And they called it Death Valley for a very, very good reason.
		So if global warming would happen to really affect this area, it could become virtually unlivable.
		Any reaction?
unidentified		Yes, I was thinking even a new record high for Death Valley, possibly.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Great.
		Well, you just had to add that, didn't you?
		All right.
		Look, your prediction is number 81 and duly recorded.
unidentified		Okay, thanks.
unidentified		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Happy New Year to you.
		What I will hope, because I realize and have realized for a long time that global warming is inevitable.
		I've seen the process underway, as you all well know.
		And I guess I have to hope that whatever effect it has produces more rainfall in the desert.
		Now, that certainly is a distinct possibility, because as I mentioned, if the temperatures here went up significantly, it would become unlivable if for a couple of weeks during the summer, we can get temperatures that approach 116 degrees or so.
		And that's kind of on the edge of what people can stand and live with.
		And, of course, we live with it with air conditioning.
		But if you were to push that up another 10 degrees, you're really talking about an uninhabitable place.
		So this is one of those places that's kind of on the edge.
		Some shorelines are going to experience erosion because of rising sea levels.
		Other areas will experience temperature differentials.
		And we're in just one of those, you know, edgy kind of areas where we couldn't stand very much.
		Let's go to, let's see, East of the Rockies, I guess, and John in the Bronx, New York.
unidentified		Hi, Aaron.
		Welcome to the United States.
		And Art, welcome back home.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thanks.
unidentified		I've been a listener since the Miami Circle days.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, quite a while ago.
unidentified		Yep.
		And I just wanted to say I like those two predictions about music.
		I wonder if they're going to be related.
		Those are fun.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I don't know, but you've got to admit, the predictions on these two programs for 2007 really have been unique.
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What have you got?
unidentified		Okay.
		I see a new unexpected nuclear power someplace in a small country with mountains somewhere around the world.
		So something unexpected, not like some group in Afghanistan or Pakistan getting nukes or one of the Soviet republics.
		I see something like unexpected, like Nepal or Paraguay or Ethiopia that's not necessarily a threat to the United States.
		A small country getting nuclear mountains, someplace with mountains that could hide them easily and be off the radar screen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, I've got you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wouldn't that be weird if some small country that we did not expect suddenly announced they were a nuclear power?
unidentified		Right.
		And again, not somebody that would be considered hostile, but that doesn't like the current conditions around the world where they're not secure with global, with international law and everything like that, where countries don't trust each other anymore.
		So I see that either next year in 207 or 2008, unless political conditions change and we get more professional statesmen like Ford was that can get countries to act together again and trust each other.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I would say your prediction is one of the more interesting.
		And believe me, that's a high compliment because we've had some darn good ones.
		All right, thank you, and take care.
		Number 82, that could happen.
		Think about it.
		Some small country that you wouldn't expect, perhaps some South American country that has been secretly working on a nuclear weapon, you know, refining or perhaps even purchasing refined uranium, enriched uranium, and they suddenly simply announce they are now in the list of countries that possess nuclear weapons.
		I wonder what we would do.
		This really has been, it may be an interesting year.
		If even a small part of these come true, it's going to be an interesting year, isn't it?
		Wildcard line is Joe in Boston.
		You're on the air, Joe.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
		Welcome back to the U.S. Thank you.
		Erin misses her hometown.
		I don't know what it's like to live in the tropics, but it must be rough.
		I have a prediction.
		I have a question for you.
		A prediction is that we will go either into North Korea or Tehran this year, or Iran.
		I'm not saying it right.
		I hope we don't.
		And so does your screener.
		I hope we don't, because it's a terrible thing when we get mixed up in that.
		George Bush, I know, wants to go into that country, those countries.
		I think we might start a war with them.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I would suspect probably more Iran than North Korea, but either one is possible.
unidentified		Sure.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, Anna, question?
unidentified		Yes.
		Will you play the Area 51 tape for us sometime on vacation?
		Remember where the guy, come on, you've got to play that.
		The guy tried to fly in there.
		We haven't heard that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, yeah.
		Yeah.
		You know what?
		The network would have a record of that.
		And it's not a bad idea, Joe.
		I'll see if we can dig it out.
unidentified		Great.
		Thanks a bunch of people.
		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
		So there.
		We'll make an official request to the network.
		Would it be?
		It was one of the most infamous things that ever occurred on this program, this fellow who flew into Area 51.
		It was pretty wild.
		It went on for quite a while.
		And I wonder if the network, if somebody at the network could dig it out and we could do just a play of that particular part.
		We could do it, for example, Thursday, if they could do it that quickly.
		If they could find that old recording and just cut out that portion, it would be absolutely fascinating.
		It was one of the wildest, most, of course, this program is full of the unpredictable, but that was at the top of the list.
		So let's see what we can do.
		And let's go to the international line and Keith in Hamilton, Ontario.
unidentified		How are you doing, Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, sir.
unidentified		Okay, great.
		First, two years ago, I told you I was six for six, and my on-air predictions that year was for race wars, I said, which happened in U.S. and Paris and Australia, and that put me seven for seven.
		Now, Art, my prediction for last year was number 33, if you have it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let me look.
		33, huh?
		Let's see.
		33, Keith from Ontario.
		A female celebrity will encounter her stalker.
		She is subsequently murdered.
unidentified		Yes, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, who was that?
unidentified		On October the 28th, I seen on the CNN ticker tape at the bottom of the screen, it said actress Adrian Shelley was found stabbed to death at her home by a construction worker.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		October 28th, Adrian Shelley.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I don't know who Adrian Shelley is, so I guess.
unidentified		Yeah, neither do I, no.
		But it literally said that.
		It said actress Adrian Shelley.
		I'm like, oh, my God.
		Not that I'm happy about the prediction, but oh, my God, it came true.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, okay.
		All right.
		I'm going to convert it to a ding.
unidentified		Thank you, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But I'm telling you right now, there are people researching, and if it turns out that Adrian Shelley was an unknown, wasn't an actress, you know, it's going back to a bonk.
unidentified		I hear you.
unidentified		I hear you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right, all right.
unidentified		I like to think right now I'm 848 anyway.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		This is not really a coast-to-coast topic, but if you remember, there was a wrestling tragedy in 1997 of Owen Hart, where he plummeted from the top of the cable and he plummeted down to the ring.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		You remember that?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Vaguely, I remember the news, yes.
unidentified		Yeah, 1997.
		So 2007, I'm going to say there's going to be another wrestling fatality.
		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Another wrestling fatality.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Any idea what part of the year?
unidentified		No, just there will be one.
		So like I say, so far, I'm 848.
		I feel, yeah, it'll happen.
		And strangely enough, too, 10 years later.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Number 84 is your assignment.
		You're very welcome.
		And we're going to be checking into what you said.
		Okay, let's see.
		I think Wildcard Line 3 has been waiting quite a while.
		Lewis in Colorado.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
unidentified		I got a prediction for you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Fire away.
unidentified		Pardon me?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Fire away.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		I predict that you are going to have completely quit smoking by the time the baby gets here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, that's going to be a safe bet.
		I'm really struggling.
		I'm going to look into this new drug they have.
		The heck is it called?
		I actually downloaded a page on it.
		It's Chantex or something like that.
		C-H-A-N-T-I-X is a new drug that apparently or claims to affect the brain's receptors, not allowing nicotine to attach to the receptors, which I guess really does do the job, I'm told, by many people.
		So I'm going to go get some from my doctor, and we'll see if we can complete the task here.
		I'm close.
unidentified		Well, you're going to be inspired by your surroundings, and this is going to be the real cause for you to quit.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm already inspired by my surroundings, sir, because Erin, of course, is pregnant.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		When I do smoke one of my four cigarettes a day, I go into a room where there's a fan and isolate myself or go outside.
unidentified		You're going to do it.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I am going to do it.
		I'm sick of it.
		I'm sick of it.
		Sick to death of it.
		Listen, buddy, it's number 85, and it's probably going to be a ding.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much.
unidentified		All right, Art.
unidentified		Bye-bye.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Bye-bye.
		Take care.
		Wildcard line for Rebecca in Oregon.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Hi, Art, and Happy New Year to everybody.
		Thank you.
		I have a prediction.
		In late 2007, a man with a distinguished military career with very strong libertarian leanings will announce his candidacy for President of the United States.
		And he is the wild card that's yet to be played.
		He will not be a darling by the media.
		He'll be something and someone totally unique that we've seen in politics in many, many years, if ever.
		And that is my point.
		Awesome.
		Wonderful.
		Well, good luck with your baby, and Happy New Year to you and Aaron.
		And thanks.
		Bye.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, bye-bye.
		I would be one excited guy if that occurred.
		You remember when Ross Perot ran?
		And I'm talking about before he sort of quit and then came back, disappointing everybody?
		I was so excited, not because Ross was such great shakes.
		I just thought he would go to Washington and he Would just shake the hell out of everybody.
		And I'm always hoping that a candidate like that will come along.
		All right, folks.
		We're going to take a break here.
		I think we're going to take a break here.
		Yes, there is the break music.
		And we'll be back with more predictions right after this.
		The official prediction show, actually the second of the prediction shows for 2007.
		And we're going to plunge right back into it in a moment and try and, well, let's see.
		We're at number 86.
		So we're kind of on track to get this all done and get about the normal number of predictions for two shows that we get.
		I'm Art Bell.
		Stay right where you are.
		The predictions continue.
		Following the program tonight, as every year, these predictions will go into the Bell Family Vault to be pulled out yet next year and reviewed.
		And hopefully will be a clapping because you have done so well.
		On the first time, Caller Line, Bud from Battle Creek, Michigan, your turn.
unidentified		Hello.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Hi.
unidentified		I've been lucky.
unidentified		This is the third year in a row I've been lucky enough to get you on these prediction shows.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How have you done so far?
unidentified		Well, the first year I called you, I was, I think, number 83.
		And my prediction was about the automobile was going to take a bad hit, which it did.
		The last year, the prediction, it did.
		And then lucky enough, last year I called in, I was number one in the show, the first caller.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Last year you were number one.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let me take a look here.
unidentified		Yeah, Bud.
		Bud's a name.
		I believe.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that was a ding.
		Bud from Michigan, extremely rough year for U.S. automakers.
		More layoffs.
		All right.
unidentified		Yeah, I'm predicting they're going to take another hit, man.
		I mean, these cars, they're pumping them out every day, and there ain't nobody out there to buy all these cars.
		And it's getting worse.
		And Toyota's, you know, really hurting America because they're building a real good car.
		And Americans, you know, they just don't take pride in stuff no more.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, I saw a recent news story indicating that the American automobile industry was supposed to make a comeback this year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But you could be right.
unidentified		I don't think it's going to.
		It's going to get worse for them people.
		I myself, I'm a security guard, and I wouldn't even want to be a security guard at a place that even made anything to do with cars because I don't have faith in anything to do with cars.
		Sooner or later, you know, you're going to get laid off or they're going to close your plan or something because it's dwindling down.
		It's getting worse.
		They're going to offer these people another big buyout this year.
		You know, and it's just going to get worse and worse.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's a depressing prediction.
		Yeah.
		All right.
		Well, this year it's number 87.
unidentified		Number 87.
		And could I say something else?
		I was listening to one of your colleagues while I was hanging on the phone here, and he's talking about your smoking.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		You're down to four cigarettes a day?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's correct.
unidentified		Do you have one in the morning?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I absolutely do.
		Well, see, that is one of the four.
		Here's the way it works.
		I wake up, and with my first cup of coffee, I have a cigarette.
		After that, I begin chewing gum.
		And I usually do not have another cigarette until, oh, say after the afternoon meal.
		And after meals, it's really, really, really hard.
		And lately, I've been able to cure myself.
		For example, when the phone rings, I've always picked up a cigarette.
		And what I've been able to do lately is pick it up and then realize I'm just, you know, I'm just reacting to an impulse and a habit.
		And so I put it back down again and have my phone call.
unidentified		Well, I quit when I was 43, and I'm 57 now.
		And the way I did it is I got up one day, went to go to my laundry and got sick.
		You know, you get that cough in the morning from smoking.
		The first one, I got out behind the car and I'm puking up my guts.
		And I said, that's it, you know.
		So I smoked the rest of the day.
		Well, that night, I slept all night, and the next morning, I didn't take that first cigarette.
		And that's the way to start.
		You've got already that eight hours that it's out of your system, you know, and it's gone.
		Just keep right on going.
		And don't take these pills because all you're doing is just going from cigarettes to these pills.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, I'm still putting nicotine into my system.
		I'm just doing it with the gum.
		Now, that, of course, saves your lungs.
		And I'm not sure that nicotine is all that harmful for you.
		I'm not a doctor, so I can't really say that with authority, but I don't think it's really that.
		It's a stimulant of sorts, kind of like coffee, I guess.
		But it doesn't damage your lungs.
		So that's what I've been doing.
		But I fully realize I'm still hooked on the gum.
		So I thought I would give this, you know, this new drug is getting rave reviews, so I thought I would give it a try.
		And that might actually relieve me of the nicotine habit.
		And that would be wonderful if that occurred.
		Now, here is something I have noticed since you brought it up.
		The first cigarette of the day is beginning to make me dizzy.
		Now, I know what that means.
		I've been smoking long enough to know what that means.
		When you have your first few cigarettes before you actually acquire the habit, it makes you dizzy as hell.
		And I've noticed that I've begun to get dizzy with that first cigarette.
		So I think that's making some progress.
		International line, Clark from Calgary, Canada, you're on the air.
unidentified		Happy New Year, Art.
		Thank you.
		My quick prediction is this.
		There's going to be some accidents and an abject failure of the nuclear program in Iran, which may precipitate a change of government.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Nuke accident in Iran.
unidentified		And a failure of their nuclear program.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That would certainly set them back.
		There's no question about that.
		Do you think that if the United States had the power, we would cause them to have a nuclear accident?
unidentified		I'm not going to say that on the air.
unidentified		Are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I just did.
		In the form of a question.
		You know, I guess if we could do something like that, we would.
unidentified		Or others.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		Or there's 90% of the moderates in Iran don't like the government and don't like what they're doing.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's true.
		You're right about that.
		Okay, your prediction is number 88.
		And I guess I'll say this.
		You know, I'm a big, big fan of the U.S. Constitution, of what our country stands for and all the rest of it.
		But we're no angels.
		And I don't for one, I'm not that naive.
		We have overthrown governments.
		We have assassinated leaders.
		We've done all kinds of things.
		We're no angels.
		But we still have the best form of government in the world.
		Don't for one second doubt that.
		For whatever erosions have occurred in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, there's nothing that comes anywhere close to the good old USA.
		That said, would we cause Iran to have a nuclear accident?
		Oh, in a CIA seconds.
		Let's go to the fourth wildcard line.
		That would be John in Massachusetts.
		Hello.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
unidentified		How are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Very well, sir.
unidentified		I'm just calling.
unidentified		I'm kind of getting the impression that in 2007, I think Cold Fusion is going to be back in the news.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I hope so.
unidentified		And I think, well, here's the shocking part of it.
unidentified		The person who is going to be involved in some way or manner is Al Gore.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I guess that would be possible.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I would think anybody with some cold fusion advance would go to somebody who cared.
unidentified		Well, exactly.
		You know, and I think that's probably, I think with all his global warming, the inconvenient truth, I think he's kind of on the forefront of that.
		I know he does have an energy company that he's starting.
		And so I think if anything's going to happen, that's where it's going to happen.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
unidentified		He's the guy to lead it.
unidentified		He has the contacts.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, sure.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Your prediction is number 89, safely made.
unidentified		Awesome.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, thank you, and have a very good, not just night, but year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let's go east of the Rockies to Peter in Dearborn Heights, Michigan.
unidentified		Hello, Mr. Bell.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		It's me, Peter, from Divert Heights.
		And I emailed you in 2004 about the three and a half day warning.
		I don't know if you remember.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I do not.
unidentified		But it's about chapter 11-11.
		You know, the 11-11 keeps showing up with everybody.
		It's when the two witnesses are killed in Jerusalem.
		That gives us a three and a half day warning for Armageddon.
		And my dream I had was that, actually, going back to, you know, I told you in that letter that we attacked Israel.
		I wanted to show you that it's true.
		That, you know, Sunni happened to be a son of Gad.
		Gad was one of the 12 sons of Israel, or Jacob.
		Jacob prophesied that at first a troop will overcome them.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I don't mean to cut you short, but I need a specific prediction.
unidentified		Right.
		You've got to have ready, you have to have ready 30 days of food and a barrel of water.
		That's my dream.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's not a prediction.
unidentified		It's a 30-day.
unidentified		Yeah, we will need 30 days of food and a barrel of water this year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let's try this.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Why will we need that?
unidentified		Because the water will turn bitter, and basically we will have trouble getting food, especially in the Middle East.
unidentified		The people in the Middle East will definitely need the food and the water.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So there'll be famine.
unidentified		Right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		And basically, Gad was the, basically, his son was Sunny.
unidentified		So the Sunnite.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I've got all that.
		All right, sir.
		I'm going to leave line and just leave it at famine.
		And let's see.
		We'll put bitter water as well.
		I really do take the time to record these, so you have to sort of bear with me as we move along.
		First time call our line, Ryan in Minnesota.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
		I'm a big fan of yours.
		Thank you for having me.
		Sure.
		I was debating on calling, but I felt I had to.
		And my prediction is that a joint effort from the CIA and the FBI is going to take coast to coast off the air.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Ooh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Any idea how they'll accomplish that?
unidentified		That I don't know.
		But I think that with the callers and the guess that you're hitting too close.
		Too much of a closer.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I guess in a way that would be an ultimate both failure and success.
		I mean, if we're wrong, well, I hope you're wrong, too.
		But if you're not, then it would be kind of an ultimate success, even though it would represent a failure.
		Actually, sir, if you think about it, it would be not just a failure of coast, but it would be a failure of the American Constitution and the Bill of Rights and everything else that we cherish as American citizens.
		So if the CIA and FBI got together and decided they didn't...
		I think that COAST exists, continues to exist, because groups like the CIA and FBI, although I'm sure they're worried And bugged and even angry at times.
		We've had the government very angry at us, believe me.
		But I think they're able to kind of write us off as conspiracy kooks, UFO people.
		And frankly, to some degree, that is what we are.
		However, we're a lot more.
		We all know that.
		I think they simply kind of write us off that way, though.
		And that's why we continue to exist.
		But knock on pressed wood because you never know.
		Wildcard line, Mark from Colorado, your turn.
unidentified		Hi, Art.
unidentified		Happy New Year's and Mabuhai.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Indeed.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Same to you.
unidentified		And I have a very, probably one of your most saddest and probably most depressing predictions of this year.
unidentified		I predict that Brett Favre is going to retire from being quarterback.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I think he had some tears in his eyes and said that it may be the year that he really does retire.
unidentified		And I think, you know, I mean, being a Packer fan, and I know that you've got some memorabilia from Brett, but.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, I've got to sign football.
unidentified		Yeah, I know, Anne.
		I mean, you know, other than winning the Super Bowl, beating the Bears is like the biggest thing.
		And for him to go out on that is probably to, you know, to top his career.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you know, a lot of people fault and joke about people like Brett because they, you know, they talk about retirement year after year after year and or retire and then come back.
		It's a very common thing among popular sports figures and people in the media.
		Look at me.
		I've retired.
		I've tried to retire a few times, but it's in your blood.
		And so I'll add to your prediction.
		And I'll bet that if Brett Favre retires, he makes a comeback.
unidentified		Oh, I don't think that.
unidentified		I think he'll just, if he retires, he'll maybe take a year or two off, and then he'll go into the media and be like one of the broadcasts.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, that's possible.
		Yeah, he could become a broadcaster, and he'd be a good one.
		So good prediction, sir.
		Good prediction.
		A very likely one.
		It's kind of in the media that he may retire.
		A lot of people give me grief over the fact that I've retired a couple of times.
		And of course, there were a couple of tragedies that took me off the air for various periods of time.
		But I've been on the air for a lot of years.
		It's been a pretty wild life, those who have followed.
		And so these things, these careers, whether it's in broadcasting or football or basketball or whatever it is, they're in your blood.
		And from time to time, an event comes along and you say, no, there's got to be more in life.
		I'm going to stop doing this and pay attention to something else.
		You come back to it because you love it.
		That's just sort of the way it is.
		Okay, let's go to Mike in New Mexico.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Good morning, Art Bell.
unidentified		Happy New Year to you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And to you, sir.
unidentified		My prediction is there's going to be a lot of shark attacks this year mainly in the Pacific.
unidentified		I know that there's been a few years lately that we've had a lot, but this year it's going to be really bad.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Any idea why?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Is it just a psychic feeling, or do you have any reason why it might occur?
unidentified		Well, we go to the Pacific a lot to surf, and it just seems like there's been more and more every year.
unidentified		There haven't been a lot in the news, but I just have a feeling it's going to be bad this year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		Another interesting prediction.
		It is number 93.
unidentified		Thank you, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
		And again, I kind of want to praise everybody.
		This has been a particularly interesting year of varied predictions, not so much of the usual.
		And so it's going to be fascinating watching the year unfold.
		Okay, let's go to John in Miami, Florida on the wildcard line.
unidentified		Hi.
		Yes.
		Hi, Art.
		Happy New Year to you and all the listeners.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you.
unidentified		Okay, my prediction is this, that President Bush will appoint his brother, Jeb Bush, now the ex-governor of Florida, as a special emissary to Latin America.
unidentified		And I feel that this appointment will be announced within the next two months.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Why do you think he would do that?
unidentified		Well, first of all, it seems like we need more goodwill towards our neighbors there in Latin America, and Jeb Bush would seem like a logical choice.
		He speaks Spanish.
		His wife is of Mexican origin.
		He's developed contacts with a lot of the governments there in South America, being governor of Florida.
		And it would seem like that would be a good appointment and good for the country.
		And I just have a strong feeling about this.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, it is now recorded officially as number 94.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you very much, and have a great night and a great year.
		We're doing very well.
		Coming up on prediction number 95, I'm not quite sure that we have enough time to squeeze it in.
		Let me review just a couple of others that were made for this last year.
		109, caller from Oregon, said the cataclysm foretold by the Mayans in 2012 will happen instead in 2006.
		The survivors will unite in peace.
		Bunk.
		110.
		Mount St. Helens blows its top.
		Ooh, there was an eruption.
		Now it wasn't full, but I'm going to give it a ding because there have been so few.
		So we'll ding that.
		111.
		Chris from Washington military jets will be scrambled against some unknown force.
		By gosh, they were.
unidentified		Ding, ding, ding.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		They went after a UFO.
		Remember that story I read you the other day?
		From the high desert, I'm Art Bell.
		2006 was a terrible, terrible year for predictions.
		Let me continue with just a few more.
		112, Sean from California.
		The truth will be revealed about TWA Flight 800.
		It was shot down.
		Bonk.
		113, Tom from New Jersey.
		I'm not saying it wasn't, by the way.
		Tom from New Jersey, massive ethnic violence in Mexico.
		Well, there was some trouble in southern Mexico, but massive?
		No, bonk.
		114, Jeff from Missouri, a zombie plague.
		Now, that would have been interesting, but it's bonk.
		115, Mexico border trouble.
		People from the U.S. enter Mexico to prevent immigration with bows and arrows.
		If he hadn't added with bows and arrows, I probably could have dinged that.
		There certainly has been plenty of border trouble and talk of border trouble.
		But bows and arrows?
		Bonk.
		116.
		Mad in Israel.
		Ariel Sharon won't make it through 2006.
		Mad in Israel.
		I'm not sure what that means, but I'll give it a.
		I'll try a ding on this and see what happens.
		117, December 18th, 2006.
		Osama bin Laden killed.
		In retaliation, a dirty bomb will detonate.
		Bonk.
		And 118, Michael from Texas said a comet and or asteroid will strike Earth in May.
		Bonk.
		So there you have a few more.
		The record is very poor.
		I've got some that we'll review at the bottom of the hour.
		But in a moment, when we come back, we will continue with predictions.
		And I have much higher hopes for 2007.
		I am really enjoying this year's predictions.
		There's just something about it.
		You're doing a tremendous job.
		Wildguard Line, you're on the air, Chris, in New York.
unidentified		Hey, Art.
		I just want to preface this by saying that I have a really terrible feeling about this prediction.
		I have a feeling that it's maybe even something awful.
		Okay.
		My prediction for 2007 is that it's going to be revealed that the sun is actually a sentenent entity and that this revelation is going to first be revealed to the Russians.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		The sun is alive.
unidentified		Yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's so unusual.
		The sun is alive.
		God, that's interesting.
		You know, you actually can't rule out such a possibility.
		American natives believe the earth is alive, and it may well be.
		I don't rule it out.
		And if, you know, maybe the sun is alive.
unidentified		Yeah, that's my prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Number 95.
		Thank you, my friend.
		That's right in line with what we've been getting.
		The sun is alive.
		The sun is an entity of some sort.
		It could be so.
		I mean, who are we to say that it is not so?
		Simply because we don't recognize life doesn't mean there is not life.
		Yes, I know it's very hot.
		All right, let's go west of the Rockies to Night Wing from Coast Riders.
unidentified		Oh, hi, Art, and the Spring Link Coast Riders and others.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		Well, my prediction is, well, it's more positive than some of the other ones.
		It's basically a piece of nanotech that's finally starting to come out.
		It's basically this e-ink that they've been talking about for 10 years.
		Those type-based displays will become more prevalent in consumer items.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What are you talking about now?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What kind of displays?
unidentified		Oh, e-ink.
		It's basically the way to describe it is after a processor puts, draws the stuff on the screen like an L C D screen, it doesn't have to keep it powered up.
		It can actually shut down, which instead of having hours on a battery, you can actually have weeks on the battery.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Wow.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Now that would be hot stuff.
unidentified		Yeah, it could also save a lot of energy for charging up batteries every couple of days, too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Boy, it sure would.
		All right.
		Very interesting.
		And recorded as number 96.
unidentified		Ah, thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you have a good year ahead, my friend.
unidentified		Same to you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, take care.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let's go this way, east of the Rockies, Bob in Ohio.
unidentified		Oh, good morning, Art.
unidentified		Happy New Year to you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		Yes.
		Okay, my prediction is, or you can call it prediction, you can call it premonition, or just one heck of a strong cut feeling from an old Marine.
		I believe that the United States is going to start up the draft again before summer ends.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You know, I can almost feel that coming.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		If they decide to put more troops in Iraq, and I think that's what they're going to do.
unidentified		It's going to be even more NADART.
		I do believe, you know, that I think North Korea, I think that guy, even though if he doesn't attack the U.S., he's going to draw the U.S. into a confrontation by sending a missile over to either Japan or South Korea.
		He can do this.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I hate to say this, but I think that the United States, before we would get into a ground battle with North Korea.
unidentified		He'll fry them.
unidentified		I think he will.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I believe that.
unidentified		I believe they'll fry him and just like Tehran.
		I do believe that.
		I think Israel is going to come in there, and I think they're going to take them out.
		But when they do, the United States and Great Britain is going to have to back them.
		There's going to be no question about it because they're going to be fighting on many fronts again.
		It'll be 1973 all over again.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm afraid I have to agree with you.
		If they decide they're going to go and enlarge their involvement, you're going to be right.
		We're going to have the draft.
unidentified		Yes, I do believe it's going to happen, and that's going to happen before the end of summer.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Duly recorded, and that was number 97.
		All right, to the well, no, let's make it the international line and say Jason in Calgary, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hey, how's it going, Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's going just spiffy.
unidentified		Good, good.
		Let's see if I can get my losing streak here.
		I'm 0 for 1 now.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		Didn't get my last year's right, so we'll try something new this year.
unidentified		That was 67 last year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you'll be 98 this year.
unidentified		Okay.
		Hopefully a higher number will be better.
		First things first, you had a caller earlier who mentioned that wrestling death, and he said it was 1997.
		It was actually 1999 in April.
		Okay.
		So it was eight years and not 10 years for him.
		So my prediction this year will be that a major restaurant chain won't be around at the start of 08.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So a major restaurant chain fails?
unidentified		Yes, either for financial reasons or it's going to be bought out by another company.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh.
		Okay.
		Well, there's a big difference.
unidentified		It's going to be one of the two.
unidentified		I can't quite pinpoint it, but I have a feeling that one of the major restaurant chains in North America won't be around at the same time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're saying it would be a name we would know.
		Yeah.
		All right.
		Again, an interesting prediction.
		Thank you very much.
		And it is indeed number 98.
		I just can't say enough how diverse, interesting, and potentially correct I think these predictions are.
		Just really a wild year.
		You've just been all over the place this year, and you're just very unusual.
		So if we get some hits here, I think we've got some people who, well, let me put it this way, perhaps deserve a little airtime.
		Let's see.
		Wild card line four.
		It would be Larry in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
unidentified		Good evening, Art.
		I believe I got a premonition about this, and it's not that unusual, but I think it's kind of remarkable.
		And I feel that in 2007, a candidate is going to announce that he's running for president, and he will be the candidate who wins.
		And it'll be somewhat of a surprise because I believe it will be Al Gore.
		I think that there will be a change of consciousness in America to where they see that this guy is coming from a different angle all of a sudden.
		And I think that the focus on saving the planet is going to come foremost in people's minds.
		And they're going to see him as a brave leader in this direction in Duo 180.
		And I think that he will be the eventual winner.
		And I believe 2007 will be the beginnings of that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That would take a gigantic change in mindset in the country.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What do you think could produce that, sir?
unidentified		The indications like the ice that broke off last week, satellite photos that's floating around out there that may hit ships.
unidentified		And here in Fort Lauderdale, I'm, what, a mile and a half from the Atlantic Ocean near Commercial Boulevard, all it takes is a few feet, and hotels are underwater, and it takes just one little thing like that combined with several others around the country to where people say, you know what, we do have a problem here.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I think that there is, the light bulb is going on for more and more people.
		As you know, I've been involved in this now for years.
		I've known for years what was happening.
		And I really, I can feel the change.
		The scientists in the last couple of years have started to collectively get together and say, well, sorry, but it's true.
		It's really happening.
		And so they're pretty much in agreement now.
		There's very little dissension on the whole subject of global warming.
		But I think it's beginning to spread to the people, so you never know.
unidentified		Well, he would be the likely person that is, you know, been in office, doesn't seem to be caught up in the current fray of diversions.
		He does seem to be single-purposed at this point.
		But I believe that people will look at him again.
		And he didn't exactly lose by that much of a margin the last time.
		So I do believe that that will be a little bit of a surprise that we'll see in 2007.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, my friend.
		Thank you very much.
		And it is duly recorded.
		You know, I'm going to make a statement right now.
		I'm going to bet you that the predictions that you all have made on these two programs this year, and I guess really now it's 2007 technically, so a few hours into the new year, I am going to be willing to bet you that we get a better hit rate out of these predictions than any of the professional psychics who come on the air and make predictions.
		That's my prediction.
		That's how much I believe in what I've been hearing the last couple of days.
		East of the Rockies, Rob in Hammond, Indiana, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
unidentified		How's it going?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Very well, actually.
unidentified		First time we ever talked was the night Clinton was elected the first time.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		Long time ago.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		So I'm on politics tonight.
		Okay.
		And I will say that the vice president will resign, and the president will nominate his brother Jeb to replace him.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, you know, I can see the reasoning behind that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		An awful lot of people would be awfully angry about it.
unidentified		Yes, they would.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But it might work.
		I hadn't thought of that.
		Jab.
		Okay, I've got it.
		Thank you much, sir.
		That would be absolutely incredible.
		And that prediction, by the way, is number 100.
unidentified		Ah, thank you.
unidentified		Okay?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		You're very welcome.
		Wouldn't that be something?
		It would be...
		I think that he's got other aspirations.
		I kind of don't think the president could get away with this.
		However, the possibility of the VP resigning for perhaps health reasons can't be ruled out.
		And if it did occur, would President Bush nominate Jeb?
		Would he take that chance, lame duck?
		Right?
		At this point in his political career, he's got to be thinking about his legacy, and it would put his legacy in some danger.
		So for that reason, I think he would not do it.
		But on the other hand, if Jeb was there, he certainly would have a chance at staying there, wouldn't he?
		Keeping it in the family, as it were.
		God, these have just been fascinating, fascinating predictions.
		Wildcard line three, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, sir.
unidentified		Hi, this is Jack.
		I am a psychic, and my visions, they come through dreams.
		And I guess the best way to describe it is it's kind of like a big giant Ouija board in my mind.
		But that's the best way, but I don't think it's an accurate description.
		But basically, I can ask any questions.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		However you do it, that's fine.
unidentified		Okay.
		And this dream that I've been having the last few nights is a little bit more gossipier than or gossipier than most of my predictions.
		But basically my prediction is that in 2007, one of the news hosts of one of the CNN news programs will be taken off the air due to an inappropriate affair.
		I don't really want to name names because I don't really have it that clear, but I think it's either Nancy.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, no, no, no, no, no, don't, don't give me names.
		Just an look, we'll just say anchor taken off air.
		CNN anchor taken off air.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And you say it'll be because of an affair?
unidentified		Yeah, an inappropriate affair.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Meaning.
unidentified		It will be with somebody of the opposite sex?
		Yeah, I think so.
		I'm not sure, actually.
		It will be either someone they work with or someone that they would cause a conflict of interest.
		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		It is duly recorded as number 101.
		First time caller line, Neil in Springfield, Ohio.
		Welcome.
unidentified		Yes, how are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Very well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes.
unidentified		Erin seems rather lovely.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		She is.
unidentified		How old is she?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		22.
		Almost 20.
		March 1st, 23.
unidentified		Hmm.
unidentified		How old a gentleman are you?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What do you think?
unidentified		You said you retired three times.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, that's right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I'm 61.
unidentified		My.
		She's 22 and you're 61.
		A 39-year difference.
		38 years.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well.
unidentified		That's hopeful for me.
		I'm looking for somebody.
		I'm 57.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Uh-huh.
		Well, good luck.
		This happened in a strange, unusual way, and it just happened.
		And it's real, and that's all I can tell you.
		And it's certainly a May, December 31st marriage, but we're in love.
		So there you are.
unidentified		Sounds great.
unidentified		Well, my prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Fire away.
unidentified		Earthquake.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Earthquake.
unidentified		Limited Vault.
unidentified		Ohio.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Valley.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Really?
unidentified		July, final week.
		It happened once before in 1980.
		I was in my room.
		In fact, it affected several states.
		I was listening to the Detroit Lions.
		Well, I don't know who they were playing up there in Detroit.
		And when the earthquake hit, they settled it up there, and everybody in the stadium cheered.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, are you talking now about an earthquake like the one that was in the middle of the middle?
unidentified		It was prominent enough to feel.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No, I know, I know, but the one you're predicting, are you talking about something the size of the one that made the Mississippi go backwards?
unidentified		Worse.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Worse.
unidentified		It's possible.
unidentified		That was in 1911.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're calling from Ohio.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Would you happen to be on that fault?
unidentified		Yep.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		How much do you believe in your prediction?
unidentified		I hope it doesn't happen.
unidentified		But, I mean, um...
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I asked how much you believe in your prediction.
unidentified		Well, they say in the literature, it's bound to happen someday.
unidentified		Soon.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That's true.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		But you believe it is going to happen because of.
unidentified		A feeling in my bones, my marrow.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Are you going to move?
unidentified		I might.
		I might move.
		Well, I've been thinking about Tennessee, but I don't know that's far enough.
		Relatives in Tennessee found out that recently that I'm related to Davy Crockett.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		No kidding.
unidentified		Yeah.
unidentified		Well, we just have Davy Crockett's sister, Sarah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		We just can't have a relative of Davy Crockett falling in a giant crack in the ground.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So, you know, run, sir, run.
unidentified		Okay.
		Well, listen, you know, I bet I've been waiting on here an hour and a half to get on the show.
		And, you know, it's a delight to talk to you, sir.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I appreciate the call.
		Thank you very much.
		And your prediction is recorded as number 102.
		That's what we're doing.
		We'll, in a moment, review the last of the main failures made last year and make a few more predictions.
		I'm Art Bell.
		Yes, indeed.
		Here I am.
		Well, this is probably a fair moment for reflection just before the break.
		Man, you heard from Aaron shortly after midnight.
		And how did all this happen?
		A lot of people are asking.
		Very briefly, it happened this way.
		As you all know, I lost the love of my life, Ramona.
		And I was in a very bad place, a very extremely dark place.
		And I began getting emails from this young Filipino gal in my private email.
		And of course, they were condolences, but they were coming in my private email.
		Now, I had thousands and thousands of condolences that came in my public emails.
		But how in the world could I be getting these private emails from a young Filipino gal on the other side of the world?
		I couldn't figure it out.
		And for a long time, I was in too much shock to even ask.
		Anyway, it developed into one of those things that went on for months.
		And finally, we ended up doing video conferences.
		And I don't know.
		It's just, it's one of those things.
		Months went by, and I decided the only, I just fell for this gal, and she fell for me.
		The way it happened, anyway, to cut all this short is a very good friend of mine, Carl Richardson, who was engaged at that point to Aaron's sister, is now married to Erin's sister, and she's back in the U.S., knew how in what a dark place I was.
		And so he asked Sharon, Erin's sister, to ask Erin to write to me.
		That's how it all began.
		And at that point, Erin was about to graduate from college.
		And in fact, I attended her graduation from college.
		I was actually there when she graduated.
		I decided the only real way to know was to go to the Philippines.
		And so, as you well know, I did.
		I went to the Philippines, and I met her.
		And everything that I thought was true turned out to be completely true.
		And I knew she was a young gal, way too young.
		But nevertheless, at this point, we're in love.
		And so we married.
		And I stayed in the Philippines.
		Well, I was there for, what, about eight months, something like that.
		And as I mentioned to that caller, it certainly is a May, December 31st relationship.
		But love has a way of just bridging the gap ever so neatly.
		And so we kind of never think about it.
		I guess I thought about it very heavily, and I counseled her heavily against the whole idea.
		But she pressed and pressed and pressed.
		And here we are.
		So it was a tragic and then a very happy year, and it may be a very blessed year ahead.
		She's quite a gal.
		I wish I could tell you more.
		And I really could tell you more, but I just, I guess that's it.
		Let's look at the remaining probably bonks.
		Let's take a good look.
		119, Robert from Massachusetts.
		Government will announce that in the event of calamity, it is not responsible for its citizens.
		That would be a bad move, bonk.
		120.
		Charlie in Florida says, proof of the Creator revealed.
		Well, not positive proof, bonk.
		121, Margaret from Massachusetts, Virgin Mary will appear in person in Bayside, New York.
		People believe it.
		I'm going to bonk that with a question, Mark.
		I hadn't heard it.
		122, Wade from Oregon, Blu-ray disc beats HD DVD in the new format war.
	I'm not sure that's occurred, but I'm going to give that a tentative ding.
	Certainly, I think Blu-ray has the edge, and I wish it would hurry up and get out.
	123, race war between Mexican Americans and African Americans.
	It creates media frenzy.
	Thank God, that's a bonk.
	124, Steve from California, jet stream changes course and wreaks havoc with Southern California.
unidentified		Hmm.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		A bonk.
		125.
		Dan from British Columbia, Canada.
		Caller's recurring dream.
		He cuts down trees with a chainsaw to prevent the public from getting to him, possibly because of bird flu hysteria.
		Bonk.
		126.
		Rich from Washington.
		Conflict with Mexico sparks most devastating year in U.S. history.
		Bonk.
		And 127, mad cow disease will be found in our milk.
unidentified		Huh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I think that's a bonk, but I'm not sure.
		128, tsunami.
		Ding, ding, ding.
		There was a tsunami.
		So, in fact, there were several.
		So that'll be a ding.
		Thank goodness.
		One, anyway.
		129, comet hits Earth in spring of 06.
		Ensuing cloud of gas essentially turns us into rabid zombies.
		And that would be a definite bonk.
		And that also, being 129, is the last prediction for 2006.
		In a moment, we will return to predictions for 2007.
		Okay.
		My board op advises me that prediction 123, a race war between Mexican Americans and African Americans, it creates media frenzy, is perhaps dingable.
		I didn't ding it, but he says that in Southern California, there has been a lot of that going on between gangs, and it is hitting the media in Southern California.
		So that's a localized ding, but certainly not on a national scale.
		So that's the first one that gets a localized ding and a national Bonk.
		We're about to go back to well, no, let's just do it.
		Back to predictions.
		My goodness, look at this.
		Wildcard line for a mafia mike, somebody I know right here in Perump.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Ready, Art?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Ready.
unidentified		Here we go.
unidentified		My prediction for you, my friend.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		For me.
unidentified		For you.
unidentified		Personal prediction.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		In the year 2007, God Almighty Himself will speak directly to you, Art.
unidentified		The Creator of the cosmos, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, will speak to you directly and reveal to you directly, my friend, your final destiny.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well?
unidentified		The final revelation.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		That would be something I would really look forward to, Mike.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		So I'm going to hope it's a ding.
unidentified		And it will be confirmed to you by your wife, Erin.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, I'll look forward to that as well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Good to hear your voice again, my friend.
unidentified		The baked potatoes are ready.
		My wife, Tamara, says anytime you want them, give them a call.
		They're on the way.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		You take care.
		She is, it's a darndest thing.
		That's not part of the Filipino diet.
		And one baked potato, and now I cannot, we cooked four baked potatoes tonight.
		And she just ravaged her way through, I think, two or possibly three of them.
		I know I had one.
		So how many are left, I'll have to go out and check.
		But she is in love, in love with baked potatoes.
		East of the Rockies, Tony, you're on the air from New York.
unidentified		Yes, hi, Art.
unidentified		Welcome back to the good old USFA.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you, sir.
unidentified		I have a prediction related to the upcoming Super Bowl.
		Ah.
		I believe that an AFC team will win the Super Bowl.
		And I'll go as far as to say that I believe it's the Baltimore Ravens.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
unidentified		And it's 25% psychic and maybe 75% educated gas.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, okay.
		As long as at least some one quarter of it is psychic, I'll record it.
		It's prediction number 104.
unidentified		Okay.
unidentified		Okay, thank you.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And good luck, and good luck, I guess, to Baltimore as well.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Let's go to San Diego and say, yo, Chris, you're on the air.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
unidentified		Happy New Year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		And please know we have felt the difference between you not living in our country and you being here.
unidentified		It's great to have you back.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
		I don't fully understand it, but I tell you, I've had nothing less than 2,000 emails saying exactly the same thing.
		It was interesting.
		Earlier, I listened to a show that I had done in the Philippines, you know, a repeat before we came on live.
		And I thought I sounded exactly the same.
		In fact, I marveled at the quality of the audio.
		And yet, thousands of emails are just saying it's incredible to have you back.
		Now everything feels right, and I don't fully understand it, but there you are.
unidentified		I have, I think, a good prediction.
		Okay.
		I am going to predict that sometime in 2007, oceanic research groups will be successful with political decisions and research methods in increasing the amount of fish in the ocean by at least 2%, in all the bodies of water worldwide.
		At least by 2%.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, that would certainly be a wonderful prediction because otherwise, the scientists are saying now, if nothing changes in the next 50 years, all the fish will be gone.
unidentified		And I'm not picturing that, and I know coast-to-coast listeners are not picturing that.
		And I really feel humanity can, we can learn.
		We can learn before tragedy occurs.
		And I want to say Happy New Year, and I will be listening to your show.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay, you take care, and thank you very much, and I hope your prediction comes true.
		Many of us, you know, I've got one in the cooker, as you well know.
		And I think we all want our children to have a decent world to live in.
		So that lays some responsibility on all of us to ensure that it is so.
		I guess we'll go to the first-time caller line, Curtis in Windsor, Ontario.
		You're on the air.
unidentified		Hello, Art.
unidentified		How are you doing?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just fine.
unidentified		I'm going to make a little bit of a prediction that goes against global warming.
		I'm almost starting to believe it because we have no snow coming into Christmas, coming into New Year's, nothing but rain.
		It was 14 degrees today.
		So my prediction I'm going to make is that it'll snow on Christmas Day here in Windsor, Ontario next year, or in 2007.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, is that a prediction or is that a hope?
unidentified		Maybe a bit of both.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you believe global warming is real or do you think it's just a fabrication?
unidentified		Well, after, what was it, 38,000 football fields, or that ice shelf that broke off of Batten Island or Batten Island?
unidentified		I have to say I believe it when you start hearing stuff like that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah.
unidentified		Yeah, and just the fact of these dry Christmases, even like I'm formerly from Alberta, like northern Alberta, and I remember a thunderstorm on Christmas Day in northern Alberta, which is basically unheard of.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		It's beginning to change quickly, sir, and there aren't many doubters anymore.
		I appreciate the call.
		Thank you very much.
		Your prediction, by the way, was 106.
		Let's go east to Bernard in Atlanta, Georgia.
		Bernard, you're on the air.
unidentified		Yes.
		Hey, Art.
		How you doing?
		Hi.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Just fine.
unidentified		I believe Delta and US Air will merge this year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Delta and U.S. Air merge.
unidentified		Right.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
		How are you getting this?
		Do you have some just a feeling?
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		I think there probably is going to be some consolidation and merging of U.S. Airlines, and what that will mean eventually is going to be higher fares.
		Okay, it is recorded officially.
		Thank you very much.
unidentified		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And with that, we go to the International Line and Brenda in Calgary, Alberta.
unidentified		Happy New Year, Art, to you and Erin.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you so much.
unidentified		It's ironic.
unidentified		Last year I was 107, too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, you're not 107.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		You're going to be 108.
unidentified		Oh, well, close.
unidentified		And you gave me a bing and a bong.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, really?
unidentified		Yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		What did you predict?
unidentified		You said you lived a drought and a major find in the Coral Castle area.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Uh-huh.
		That's right.
		Well, we certainly did have drought in North America.
		I don't know about Coral Castle, though.
		I think that was the bonk part.
unidentified		Yeah, that was the bonk.
unidentified		I was hoping, but it didn't come about yet.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		All right.
		Well, then, good.
		What have you got?
unidentified		Okay, first of all, congratulations on the forthcoming birth of your baby daughter.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, it'll be a daughter, you think, huh?
unidentified		Oh, yeah.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, if it is, her name is going to...
		She was conceived in Hong Kong.
		Okay.
		Oh, we know.
		Hong Kong, no question about it.
		And her name will be Asia.
unidentified		Oh, awesome name.
unidentified		I like that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Well, it works.
unidentified		Mm-hmm.
unidentified		And she's going to be the apple of her daddy's eye.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, boy, would she be.
unidentified		Spoiled rotten, too.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yeah, I know.
unidentified		Anyways, my prediction for this coming year of 2007 is not going to be one of the best ones that you've heard.
unidentified		It is going to be a lot of trouble with the markets this year due to the federal government's new regulations for the truckers.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		When you say markets, you mean financial markets, right?
unidentified		Financial, yes.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Okay.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		And it's because of trucking?
unidentified		Yes.
unidentified		The federal governments have regulated the truckers and limited their timeframe of being able to drive in one time span.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yep.
unidentified		And everything's going to get slowed down.
		Shelves are going to start getting empty.
		And they're going to all of a sudden realize that everything that comes into the stores at one point in time comes by a truck.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Very interesting.
		Very interesting prediction.
		Thank you.
unidentified		You're welcome.
		And take care.
		And a big hi and welcome to North America to Erin.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Yes, indeed.
		Thank you very much.
		Well, can you imagine coming from near the equator, from where she has come from, which is basically way out in the styx, to suddenly coming to North America.
		Boy, I'll tell you, she had a little bit of decompression going to Manila, but then ending up in America.
		Four days in America.
		What must it feel like?
		I can only begin to guess from my, of course, I'm a world traveler, but having spent the time that I did in the Philippines, I can imagine what she's going through.
		And it should be interesting.
		Rusty in Millbury, California, you're on the air and perhaps the last.
unidentified		Well, I wish you a very happy and prosperous new year.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Thank you.
unidentified		And I've had four situations where I've had dreams about some prediction and all four have come true.
unidentified		And last week, I had a dream about a small missile carrying chemicals that resemble gas fumes, and it explodes over a small area where I'm at.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In California?
unidentified		In San Francisco Bay Area.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Oh, boy.
unidentified		I hope I'm wrong on that.
art bell ▲ ● ▼		Do you feel like it would be a terrorist action?
art bell ▲ ● ▼		In other words, it's not another country launching on us, is it?
