So...when is it?

My guess..October 10th: The anniversary of the founding of North Korea�s ruling Korean Workers Party. (courtesy of Marmot's Hole)

This sounds reasonable to me. Knowing Koreans and their lack of the planning gene, I can't imagine them announcing a nuclear test if it was beyond anything in the near immediate future.

So if the test doesn't happen by the 10th, I'll assume it was just KJI having his annual haircut and seat-of-the-pants philosophy day.

It's always wise to be careful around people who just don't give a ****.

Think Columbine and disgruntled postal workers, but then modulate that by the Korean passive-aggressive factor--nuclear bombs in vending machines in Baltimore.

The future could show us problems we've never seen before in the history of the world.

Mod Edit: Edited for language.

Maybe I should have added option 7: I don't give a flying *beep*.

Really? No predictions? Come on, it will be fun. We can have a doomesday countdown party.
