For one thing, there's no air to push against in outer space. The New
York Times pointed that out long ago to that lunatic Goddard.

The Collected Buffoonery of Daniel Joseph Min - Usenet's most failed prophet.

Who is Danny Min?
What does he post?
Examples of failed prophecies
What you should do

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Who is Daniel J. Min?
Daniel J. Min is a denizen of Usenet newsgroups. He posts using various variations on his name, including using asterisks or underlines in place of letters. Often he will post as "Nomen Nescio" or Anonymous, and he used to post as GOD>.
The reason for this is to get around peoples "kill files" or "bozo filters"

However, he consistently posts through anonymous "remailers" in order to disguise his true identity

He posts to various newsgroups, including alt.astrology, alt.astronomy, and alt.prophecies.nostradamus. He posts in any inappropriate newsgroup he deems neccessary.

Additionally Danny has been known to directly email people, once again, using his anonymous remailer service.

What does he post?
Danny posts various garbage claims about astrological influences, and birthdata, which he generally makes up as he goes along. Outstanding amongst his posts include claims to know exactly the birthdata of Jesus Christ, Johannes Kepler, Ptolemy, and various other historical characters.
He posts silly prophecies and claims, and even at times posts his own "kill file list" which has become so large that it's unlikely he even *sees* anyone else s posts anymore.

Some Classic examples of Danny's failed prophecies
(Danny's "prophetic" words are italicized)
Danny predicts the "Great Khan of Terror":
On 15 Nov 1999 22:34:03 -0600, GOD wrote in these newsgroups:
The king of terror will come some time around the month of May in 2000.

At this time, the inner planets will all be lined up on one side of the sun with the exception of the Earth which will be directly at the opposite side.

The increased gravitational effects of the sun combined with the added pull from the other planets will have a devastating effect on the earth.

At this time, all major fault lines will rupture. California will experience the big one at this time.

Volcanic activity will increase and it is very likely that the Long Valley Caulderra will explode cataclysmicly. These types of events will be occurring at roughly the same time throughout the entire planet.

To top it off, the suns corona will be nudged away from the earth...towards the grouped inner planets, effectively creating a massive coronal hole (I.E." the "three days of darkness").

When the pull of the alignment comes to pass, the corona will snap back to the earth facing side thereby releasing a CME of massive proportions....aimed directly at planet Earth.

Believe me, there will be terror at this time.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Danny moves "The Great Kahn of Terror" by yet another 7 months:
On Mon, 19 Jun 2000 19:59:25 -0500, No User wrote:

Yes, the seventh month 1999 in the revised Roman calendar was from sunset September 10th to sunset October 10th but the first month 1999 was in the spring of 1762 BC, sunset Saturday March 24th to sunset April 22nd proleptic Julian. The seventh month Ethanim was therefore 2000, not of 1999 but FROM the first month in the YEAR 1999 of the passover. Hence, the YEAR 1999 seventh month AND seven months. See?

Daniel predicts the US presidential election for 2000
On 12 Nov 2000 23:44:00 -0000, Daniel Joseph Min wrote:
The 42nd President of the United States is the very
last of all the American Presidents to hold office.

He will announce our *National Emergency* shortly,
thus will continue in the office of the President,
having already been inaugurated in due diligence
when he was elected President. Gore is still VP.

&There is no reason to repeal the 22nd amendment,
given that Mr. President William Jefferson Clinton
has been elected twice only, and no more, thus the
amendment does not apply. Neither does a term limit
apply in his case, given that this is indeed a true
state of emergency with bloody violence seen to be
escalating in the State of Florida and elsewhere,
spreading like wildfire as it is in the mid east.

Get to higher ground if you can (look at England!)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So what should you do about him?

Well, first of all, you can be pretty sure based on his success rate that anything he has to say is wrong.
Someone once said, rather well, that "there is too much Min, and not enough Nostradamus" in what he posts.

Complaining won't do much, because he's they type of individual that doesn't feel the need to explain himself.
Asking him to stop only feeds him.
complaining to his anonymous remailer service results in nothing.
About the best thing to be said, is just be aware of what a buffoon he is.

I'm hoping this latest topic contribution, as yet another of my gradual
word by word improvements, isn't too imposing of myself.  BTW;  I'm
still one of those good-guys (AKA messenger from hell) that's banished
from "sci.space.research" and dozens of other places, but perhaps you
folks can fix that part on my behalf.

Daniel Joseph Min;

Thanks much for all of that constructive information.
But there are still more than a few bad Jews and of those wussy Jewish
puppets like our resident LLPOF warlord(GW Bush) in town, and of the
many other good Jews that obviously do not dare to police their own
kind are not exactly helping one damn bit.  If need be, and it's
certainly well enough documented, they'll manage to get whomever's
their resident partner in crimes against humanity (Romans in those good
old days), for putting one of their own kind on a stick.  And now
you're saying that's not such a bad thing?

How about that Pope exterminating most of those nice Cathars?

How about provocations for our getting on with WW-III?

How about I contribute a few other zingers?

Is there a "Daniel Joseph Min" red-line or 'do not push' button?

If you were half as smart as you claim, you'd know that I'm not the
least bit anti honest Jew, any more so than anti honest Muslim or
against any other constructive faith that actually gives a tinkers damn
about the whole of humanity and of salvaging whatever's left of our
global warming environment that's at the point of no-return, am
unfortunate process of taking too many of us to an early grave simply
because we are too poor or simply too dumbfounded to otherwise avoid
being delivered to an eturnal hell on Earth, or worse yet being place
on a stice like a previous jewboy that rocked one of his own boats.
How about yourself?  Honestly speaking; how bigoted is the mindset of
"Daniel Joseph Min"?

What laws of physics and/or of the best available science does "Daniel
Joseph Min" accept or reject?

How about the discoveries and research of "Ed Conrad"; how do you
stand?

How about my discoveries and research as to other intelligent life on
Venus?

In other honest though dyslexic words, I'll ask;  topic by topic, how
yaysay/naysay boxed is your mindset?

For starters, I totally agree with Ed Conrad that Darwin hasn't been
the last word in evolution, nor is NASA/Apollo the last word as to
LL-1, our moon, Venus nor dozens of other such topics and supposed
benchmarks.

In spite of what this GOOGLE accommodated Usenet and of what their
mainstream status quo has had to say all of these decades, and that
includes each and every one of their mainstream publishing puppets and
otherwise infomercial-science for a buck of suck-ups like the
Smithsonian and NOVA, I happen to know exactly where Venus was at the
times that count, as basically residing above that Apollo lunar horizon
and unavoidably in the general direction of our sun, but Venus is not
always to the inside of Earth as viewed from that physically dark moon.
I also know that the GOOGLE/Usenet insider folks are still nothing but
a Jewish collaborating Third Reich LLPOF cultism, of an absolute pagan
and otherwise bastard minion collective that sucks and blows whenever
they get the opportunity.  The regular laws of physics that'll suit
their Einstein, of orbital mechanics that never lies and of the
replicated hard-science of Kodak is what proves that I'm right and that
all others are not, just as it proves that such NASA/Apollo folks have
been the worse possible liars from their very perpetrated cold-war get
go.  See you folks in court as we get around to publicly frying each of
your sorry bigoted a.ses, and of every associated other such a.s
bastard of your incest mutated kind that we can get our hands on (and I
bet you folks had thought being Islamic was a bad idea).

In addition to all the other status quo of what's ongoing and of their
up-hill flowing crapolla from their Smithsonian and of their NOVA and
NASA/Apollo rusemasters of supposed wizards that we honest folks have
to continually deal with, it seems we're stuck with the all-knowing
likes of photographic wizard "George Evans" and as always that of lord
"David Knisely" and "Sam Wormley" that'll systematically avoid and/or
having excluded the truth at the drop of a typically Jewish hat.

That recent contribution by Ed Conrad of the "SimplyMagic/TightFit.jpg"
is certainly a good one of "Chris Krolczyk, former Smithsonian
anthropologist (and anevolutionist, obviously) does his thing outside
National Museum of Natural History. Krolczyk has left the Smithsonian
to join a carnival" is impressive but otherwise a bit too much to ask
for.  Although, at each of their trials for crimes against humanity, we
might require that you folks perform that very same act as part of your
butt-ugly defense, because that's exactly where your incest bigoted
head would have had to have been for the past 4 decades and counting,
as your one and only viable defense.

However, the rest of Ed Conrad's "RARE PHOTO OF FIRST MAN IN THE MOON
-- FOX NEWS EXCLUSIVE" topic is also sharing the truth and nothing but
the truth.

Ed's 280 million year "old as coal" stuff goes right along with the
sorts of notions that I've had about the evolution of complex humans
taking much longer to having evolved, or perhaps as having somewhat
recently de-evolved if taking our dipshit warlord(GW Bush) into
account, thereby much longer than any timeline of what Charles Darwin's
Theory of Evolution had suggested.  Hundreds of millions if not
billions of years sounds about right, unless we're dealing with some ET
4H efforts of creation that had been fooling around with a little
intelligent design of their own, and having located a viable
planet(Earth) as their dumping/disposal solution of accomplishing their
biohazard isolation, so that we'd be technically sequestered and
thereby couldn't so easily contaminate other species throughout this
vast universe of truly intelligent life, or even so easily get
ourselves to/from other planets within our solar system.

But then no matters what, we still have to contend with the perverted
sick mindset likes of our extremely brown nosed NASA/Apollo suck-ups as
"George Evans", "David Knisely", "Sam Wormley" and of so many of their
mutually incest mutated kind, that we'll simply have to one by one
round up and deal with.

George Evans;  "So even from the earth, Venus is harder
to spot than the moon. I would assume that holds true
when standing within 10 feet of the moon."

Your lordship "assume" wrong, especially pixel per pixel or via
photographic film grain per grain is where that vibrant speck of a
crescent Venus is obviously smaller but otherwise so much brighter than
our physically dark moon.  Sorry about that.

I had only used such images of our moon as having other planets and a
few stars like Spica as examples of what can be obtained within the
same exposed frame that's having a look-see at that physically dark
moon of ours.  There are even NASA/Apollo images from lunar orbit of
our moon and Earth within the same frame, and if you can see Earth
along with our physically golden dark and otherwise mineral rich moon
is what represents that the likes of having the much brighter though
obviously smaller item of Venus and most any other planet that's within
view is going to become unavoidably included, that is unless having
been PhotoShop removed, or in the case of certain vibrant bluish stars
as having been band-pass filtered out, or simply having been avoided at
all cost.  Ektachrome film demonstrated as having more than sufficient
DR to work with (at least 9 f/stops worth), and those were unfiltered
camera and lens applications that would have recorded into the UV-a
spectrum.  Therefore, you and others of your kind have no physics nor
scientific basis for your side of this argument, unless the physics and
science of either being dumbfounded or flat out lying counts.

I've already posted those terrestrial obtained image URLs and so much
more...  I say forget about those atmospherically spectrum filtered and
otherwise optically moderated terrestrial shots as having included our
moon along with other planets and of a few stars as being within the
same frame.  I'd nicely asked of others, on multiple occasions none the
less, as I'll ask of yourself;  as observed From the moon, where's
Venus?

For an absolute certainty, on three of those Apollo missions it was
sufficiently nearby and situated somewhere above that physically dark
lunar horizon, and at the time of those three Apollo missions
(11/14/16) it was not ever entirely hidden by the moon or Earth, and
without a spectrum filtering atmosphere between is also why Venus was
especially damn bright to that unfiltered Kodak eye, by as much a three
fold brighter albedo than the spectrum of the albedo afforded by
earthshine which absorbs a good deal of that UV-a spectrum (making
Earth look as though somewhat bluish and Venus looking a bit violet),
and since there's hardly any moderation nor spectrum filtration
afforded by that wussy lunar atmosphere is exactly why the UV-a
reflected off Venus should have been absolutely impressive to those
unfiltered Kodak moments.  As I'd stipulated before, Venus should have
been unavoidably included in at least three Apollo missions of such
extensive picture takings.

Obviously that guano moon of their's that is dusted in portland cement
and representing such a 0.55 to 0.65 reflective/retroreflective surface
is simply not the real thing.

I know for an absolute matter of replicated hard-science and of physics
fact upon fact that Venus was not being nearly as stealth as were all
of those WMD that each of your remorseless naysay kind had otherwise
claimed existed.  Of course, and only if you'd dare, you folks could
easily have proven that I'm wrong, but obviously you can't afford to
take that chance or that risk of essentially proving that I'm right.

For certain, the truth and nothing but the truth is going rather nuts
these days, just like our resident LLPOF warlord(GW Bush) has gone far
beyond nuts (more like 10+ trillion plus butt-loads of his collateral
damage and the nearly endless carnage of the innocent, insane).

With further regard to our seriously rad-hard Apollo astronauts having
easily and rather unavoidably photographed a few sufficiently bright
items other than the physically dark moon itself, and that of mother
Earth that isn't half as humanly albedo bright as Venus and not a third
as unfiltered Kodak moment bright, Brad Guth wrote:

KODAK, NASA, ESA, team KECK and just about any other source that's
equally approved and replicated to death.

BTW;  Where the heck is all of that hard-science of what should have
included moon sodium/salt and other tidbits of lead and the unavoidable
radium deposits from our supposed moon samples?

How can the likes of the moon's radium, lead and of so many other
fundamental heavy elements have vanished? (certainly not into thin air)

Why is having more gravity and of being such a much larger target of
Mars offer a good hundred fold more of those relatively dark surface
deposited meteorites per km2, plus having loads of secondary impact
shards to show us?  In other words, how the heck did our moon according
to those NASA/Apollo EVA photographs get so devoid of meteorites and
having depicted such few secondary shards?

Why are those few and far between meteorites and secondary impact
shards, that reside upon our passive guano and portand cement like
moon, offering such low contrast (0.45~0.65 albedo), and otherwise w/o
hardly any raw mineral colors?

Why is that highly reflective if not selectively retroreflective
moon-dust that's affording such a nice amount of surface-tension, as
offering such terrific physical support of such good clumping
compression capacity and/or simply robust, and otherwise so unusually
shallow, especially when much smaller moons are way more covered in
deep layers of their fluffy moon-dust that isn't the least bit
compacted.

Since the GSO environment of what our Van Allen belt can be worth 2e3
Sv/year, as based upon being shielded by 5/16" worth of 5086 aluminum,
and since our naked moon has always been measurably worse off;  How the
heck did they do it?

I had asked; "Where do you suppose all of that sodium/salt is coming
from?"

KMM, You've got to be absolutely kidding, as even our resident LLPOF
warlord(GW Bush) isn't that dumbfounded.  The well documented and even
photographed 900,000 km comet like trail of that solar wind extracted
element of sodium away from our moon isn't hardly a secret.  In spite
of that NASA/Apollo koran you worship; that physically dark and double
IR roasted to death nasty moon of ours is still as salty as all get
out.

Though "KMM" has provided those nice infomercial-science links of what
we've all been informed of and thus knew about for decades, and
otherwise more of those unfiltered Kodak moments of that guano moon
that's so lightly dusted in such a thin layer of portland cement that's
so bone-dry yet clumping and/or as having been selectively
retroreflective under such nifty xenon lamp illumination to boot.
Thanks ever so much.

I'll ask again as to what's so complicated or otherwise
taboo/nondisclosure about honest folks sharing the truth and nothing
but the truth?

What's so unusable or otherwise taboo about the regular laws of physics
and of the sorts of hard-science that's fully replicated?

What's so unlikely about various individuals of great wealth and power
and/or of their puppet governments as having made mistakes or simply
having been favorably dishonest, greedy and highly bigoted?

What's your all-knowing expertise or best SWAG of an answer as to each
of these pesky "blue-screen" frames?

What's your all-knowing best answers to their having photographed a
greater than half illuminated Earth along with their highly reflective
moon as having been well past sunrise, and otherwise that of having
recorded such an unusually slim crescent of Earth as photographed from
the moon?

Once again;  WHERE's VENUS ?
On at least three Apollo missions of A-11, A-14, A-16, and especially
since you've all had access to the very best supercomputer and of the
fully interactive 3D solar system simulator that'll fully render a very
photographically realistic (AKA true to life) representation of nearly
all there is as viewed from anywhere at any date and time:  Where's
Venus, as having been viewed from the moon?

While you're at it, utilizing that absolutely nifty supercomputer of
ours, and of using that fully interactive 3D capable rendering software
of what that absolutely nifty solar system simulator of ours can
accommodate;  where's the likes of the super-bright and otherwise
extreem bluish/violet Sirius star system throughout all of those APOLLO
and of so many other robotic missions before and especially of those
after having at least an extra 4 db or 16 fold better worth of dynamic
range to offer (these days a few of the 16 db capable CCDs are
available as also having been in orbit and otherwise 100+% bought and
paid for by public dollars, as well as via tax-avoidance dollars
(thereby same as public dollars)?

I bet that you folks are not about to tell us village idiots what the
unfiltered Kodak photographic recorded difference is between that of
using a xenon lamp spectrum and that of having to deal with the raw
solar illumination spectrum.  In that case I and Kodak or that of other
film manufactures will gladly share and share alike.

Here's another trick question;
With a view of Earth situated within the same frame as obtained from
orbit;  Why is that moon of ours of such a deeply rich composite of
golden brown tinted or soot coated basalts and of various other dark
element deposits as having been viewed from orbit, and otherwise
entirely of such clean portland cement and of somewhat lighter
contrasting substances that's absolutely colorless and even somewhat
selectively retroreflective as having been viewed from the surface?

BTW No.2;  Ed Conrad (http://www.edconrad.com/) has been saying all
along that man, or at least of something very human or perhaps ET like,
is at the very least as old as coal, and that we haven't yet walked on
that physically dark and nasty moon of ours.  got it?

If walking upon that physically nasty and unavoidably sooty dark
mineral and complex meteorite rich moon of ours (representing our best
available solar/cosmic morgue that has to include loads of dead
spores), besides that environment being extremely electrostatic dusty
as all get out (tens of meters in fluffy depth none the less), I want
you folks to think Van Allen belt and TBI dosage nasty, as in GSO times
ten = 2e4 Sv/year while having been shielded by 5/16" worth of 5086
aluminum (~2 g/cm2).  Gee whiz, folks, that's only worth 228 rads/hr.
On a truly bad solar day you can go with that dosage being another ten
fold worse off, and if it's a rare but totally passive solar day
there's no chance in hell of that daytime surface environment offering
less than 23 rads/hr and perhaps at best 2.3 rads/hr by way of the
gamma and unavoidable secondary/recoil in hard-X-rays of the cosmic
nighttime/earthshine environment while shielded by that same 2 g/cm2.
Either way, I'm thinking that you'd best have that personal cash of
banked bone marrow standing by, and perhaps a few of those vital spare
body parts just in case things get a little nastier than you'd planned
on.  I would also advise that you learn braille and get yourself a good
dog, especially since you could soon become blind.

Brad Guth

Here's a few suggestions and otherwise a few questions of my own.

Why the heck isn't your "soc.culture.jewish" collective involved in
this nifty topic?

Was it something that I'd said? (such as the truth and nothing but the
truth)

What's the least bit anti-Islam or anti-Jewish about there being other
intelligent life on Venus, especially since they too could be Islamic
or perhaps Jewish, or at the very least Cathar for all we know.

Apparently most Jews are not actually smart enough to realize that
technically it only takes one such Kodak moment as proven as being
phony.  How many hundreds of those easily proven as phony (AKA
hocus-pocus) Kodak moments of our NASA/Apollo fiasco would you folks
like to review?

Obviously if you're into reading this, you're either one of them or
you're just as snookered and otherwise as dumbfounded as I was 7+ years
ago.

Isn't of what I've discovered and/or uncovered the least bit NOBEL
PRIZE worthy?

Why the heck can't I become the first Mennonite to win a Nobel?

From: Amanda Angelika

In other words, yourself and others that 100+% support all that's
NASA/Apollo have an acceptable level of LLPOF conditional physics and
of hocus-pocus science, as long as it lets yourself and of your kind
pretend that we've been walking on that physically dark and otherwise
extremely nasty moon of ours.

Please list all the laws of physics that you folks do not believe in.

Please list all of the replicated hard-science that doesn't count.

I guess this means you folks also have an acceptable level of
collateral damage and carnage of the innocent, that's obviously on
behalf of supporting your perpetrated cold-war(s) and of whatever else
your mainstream status quo requires of it's little brown nosed minions.

There was nothing new about Kodak film back then or now that would
explain away those images that look as though so entirely phony as all
get out, and that's even as based upon their very own robotic obtained
images that were developed while on the fly and having been scanned and
digital/microwave transferred back to Earth, as for their having shown
us an entirely different and otherwise perfectly believable moon from
orbit than from the actual surface.  Thus far, there is no actual
original film that we can review as derived back from being within the
Van Allen belts, or much less from whatever's beyond because, such well
shielded film (especially of being nearby that terribly gamma and
hard-X-ray moon of ours) simply had to be developed right then and
there, or else.

The Van Allen expanse is perhaps at most worth 10 db of radiation
moderation from what our moon has to offer, or possibly it represents
something slightly less than 7 DB.  Either way, it's what's primarily
saving us from being radiated to death by our moon.  Oddly, the
hard-science that pertains to our moon and of those Van Allen belts
from team ACE and of every other available robotic mission is moderated
to death and/or sequestered, remaining as though taboo/nondisclosure if
such science could have any impact upon the truthful knowledge that's
pertaining to our moon.  Even team KECK and of more recently team
MESSENGER had avoided our moon, and so forth.

OOPS!, it seems at times I've broken GOOGLE's Usenet.  Sorry about
that.  Now it's as though whenever I've contributed my dyslexic
encrypted truth is when the entire access to this anti-think-tank of
this disinformation Usenet from hell comes to a near halt (I have
pigeons that are a whole lot faster at transferring packets, and
certainly as otherwise more trustworthy).

In spite of these all-know wizards, rusemasters and those members of
their Third Reich collaborating kind that can't seem to honestly
address their own Kodak documented issues of "photogrammetric
rectification", of a greater than half illuminated Earth while being
days past sunrise on the moon, of the extremely slight crescent of
Earth as supposedly obtained from the lunar deck of what's extensively
xenon lamp spectrum illuminated, nor as to any of those oops!
blue-screen images, or for that matter anything as having to do with
those fly-by-rocket landers or even the impressive task that can't be
replicated of getting nearly 50t into orbiting our moon so quickly,
along with those spare tonnes of reaction thrusting fuel (especially
fuel intensive since not having any momentum reaction wheels to work
with), plus loads of their essential retrothrust and other fuel tonnage
for returning home as entirely unscaved along with all of that Kodak
film that supposedly hadn't yet been developed, whereas I'm doing the
very best that I can to fix my words and to improve upon the syntax and
math.

Obviously the regular laws of physics and of the replicated science
truth is what's bothering these folks the most (unfortunately, knowing
an fo sharing the truth and having supposed friends of your own kind in
high places didn't do much good for Jesus Christ, nor had any of those
nice Cathars been spared that were simply being good folks that had
been extremely well educated and subsequently making the Pope look as
though a little greedy and arrogant).  Sorry about that (go suck
another dozen rotten eggs), because once you're dead and gone is when
it really doesn't matter, does it.

Instead of our having a few good religions on Earth (assuming that
being Jewish qualifies), it seems we have dozens of extremely touchy if
not a few too many bad ones that are going postal from time to time, by
way of their having under/over reacted on just about anything you can
think of.  I guess my having a Mennonite background of our folks being
those of a somewhat non blood thirsty (Cathar like) group of moderate
and considerate souls doesn't even count, especially these days when
it's all about having the most oil, coal and natural gas is the one and
only pagan God of politics on steroids that matters, whereas being a
certified born-again liar and Skull and Bones member in good standing
is what makes you president.
