I started to laugh at this, and then remembered a few "meetings" with some of these people. Like our own high ranking "CT" expert who attempted to explain the significance of adding dates together for "symbolic" reference prior to the Obama coronation..... too close to home.





Terror Experts Warn Next 9/11 Could Fall On Different Date
JANUARY 6, 2009 | ISSUE 45•02


WASHINGTON—In an alarming development with wide-reaching implications
for America's safety, Department of Homeland Security head Michael
Chertoff and CIA Director Michael Hayden issued a joint report Monday
warning that the next 9/11 could in fact occur on a different date.
The report, based on intelligence gathered by field-agents, found that
a future 9/11 might take place on an entirely new month and day,
including 4/24, 6/13, or even 10/12. According to the report, the
nation could realistically find itself in the midst of a 5/25
scenario, as well as a potential 3/14 situation in the months to come.

8/28, 6/19, and 11/7 were also cited as possible 9/11s.

"While 9/11 has historically always fallen on 9/11, we as Americans
need to be prepared for a wide range of dates," Chertoff said during a
White House press conference. "There's a chance we could all find
ourselves living in a post-6/10 world as early as next July. Unless,
that is, we're already living in a pre-2/14 world."
"1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5," Chertoff continued for nearly 45 minutes,
"12/28, 12/29, 12/30, 12/31—these are all plausible and serious
threats."

An addendum to the report that includes leap years will be released by
the end of March.

Though the DHS has identified more than 7,000 sensitive dates spanning
the next 20 years, it did manage to rule out 4/15/04 and 10/38 as
future 9/11s. The government report also confirmed that the next 9/11
would more than likely not involve an assault on the World Trade
Center's North and South towers as it has in previous attacks.

Furthermore, the 350-page document rejected long-held beliefs that the
next 9/11 would commence at 8:46 a.m. on a sunny Tuesday morning. In
fact, it warns that a future attack could occur on a cloudy, snowy, or
even brisk day, at 8:53 a.m., 10:42 p.m., or any one of the other
1,440 known times.

"We are dealing with agents of terror who are willing to carry out
another 9/11 on—if you can imagine it—6/8," Hayden told reporters.
"Indeed a day may come when we as a nation have to live in fear of
another 6/8, recount where we were when 6/8 happened, and swear never
to forget the events of 6/8."

"At some point we might even have to come to terms with the harsh
lessons of 6/8," Hayden continued.

Hayden assured citizens, however, that no matter what date the
imminent attacks fall on, he has every reason to believe that the next
9/11 will be carried out by militants, radicals, zealots, or
extremists, who will stop at nothing, next to nothing, or very little
to destroy America.

Hayden also said he was certain that at least one of the world's 6.7
billion human beings will plot the future 5/24 or 3/17 attacks, and
that it will most likely target either the nation's subways, seaports,
landmarks, stadiums, buildings, structures, or other indoor or outdoor
areas where large groups of people tend to gather.

"Instead of calling major terrorist attacks on their soil 'our 9-11,'
other nations may soon refer to their own national disasters as 'our
11/28,'" Chertoff said. "Which, incidentally, is also my birthday,
though I admit that is neither here nor there."

At the conclusion of the press conference, Chertoff urged Americans
not be alarmed by the recent news, and to continue living their lives
as they have for the last seven years—with the crippling fear that at
any moment they, or someone they love, could die in a fiery inferno.

If this is true... we could be in for a lot of trouble. The fourth of July could occur on March 12th, Cinco de-Mayo could rear its ugly head on 3 August...
One of my worst nightmares as a child was waking up on a sunny saturday morning in late June and finding out it was Valentines day.
Worst of all... what if April 15th pops in around early February before we've been able to file our taxes!

This needs to be looked at by a bi-partisan committee ASAP before there is a catastrophe like the one that could happen on 6/10 !!!

We could play the extension card. Of course, if you follow their logic, the extension would theoretically expire before the original due date of the tax return. Then you'd have late filing penalties assessed on an early filed return.

Alas, poor Common Sense, I knew him.

Didn't know where it came from - good catch.

It was sent to me as a joke of course, but then we all started looking at each other saying - "hey, we've actually heard some of that from HLS before"......
