The Day That Was Long Foretold

Long has the coming of this day been foreseen by the wise, and now: Lo! it is upon us! Those who scoffed at its coming now see the error of their ways paved in scarlet across their faces, as their humiliation rains down upon them like the blows of a thousand tiny red hands. For this day long forseen - long plotted out, calculated from afar by those of far sight - has indeed arrived: Wednesday, January 17th 2007!

Let none now say that the sooth speakers spoke false sooth on this one. The proofs are proved plain upon the scrolls of days, pre-printed and sold across the land to be displayed upon the walls of all who shun the false gospel of the "here and now" and heed the wisdom of those who would fain see us look ahead!

Few indeed looked to the coming of this day, it is true. Despite the clear warnings, squared off, alotted and marked out long, long hence, only a faithful few kept vigil awaiting its coming. Yet come it has! In such ways is the wisdom of the world repaid, for those too foolish to spurn it!

Mark ye, and neglect not your ways.
