12 12 12


Asimov challenges Nostrodamus:
Asimov: So what’s significant about three numbers in a date being the same?
Nostrodamus: Everything’s in line for a big movement. It’s significant.
Asimov: Humbug. How many times is Doomsday predicted? And it never happens.
Nostrodamus: But then something happens out of the blue like 9/11. Doomsdays come when nobody expects. Anyway, isn’t saying “white rabbit” first of every month superstition?
Asimov: Err, that’s different. That’s a bit of fun. Willing suspension of scientific thinking.
