Freaky The Economist

How do you define "Prescient?"

I noticed that The Economist Magazine (it calls itself a newspaper) has a weird knack for predicting Major natural disasters. In December 2004, just a few days before the Asian Tsunami, this is what its cover looked like:


And as if that weren't enough, today, I read in this week’s edition an article about Indonesia where they wrote: "the sprawling Indonesian archipelago remains vulnerable to all sorts of natural disasters, from volcanoes, earthquakes and tsunamis to outbreaks of deadly diseases"

Imagine my surprise when I later check the internet and read: “3000 Die in Indonesian Quake!”

Conclusion: If The Economist predicts a disaster in your area, just leave..
