AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around a controversial article suggesting that the Haiti earthquake was caused by a US Navy weapon test intended for use against Iran. This claim is supported by unverified reports from the Russian Northern Fleets and echoed by figures like Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, who has made similar accusations. Additionally, there are allegations from various sources that the US military has used such technology in other regions, including Afghanistan. The conversation highlights concerns raised by US Secretary of Defense William Cohen about the potential for military technology to manipulate natural phenomena. However, some participants dismiss these claims as conspiracy theories, emphasizing the need to avoid sensationalism and focus on legitimate scientific research, such as atmospheric studies for surveillance and communications.

I'm don't think these people were joking when they wrote this article:

An unconfirmed report by the Russian Northern Fleets says the Haiti earthquake was caused by a flawed US Navy 'earthquake weapons' test before the weapons could be utilized against Iran.

The article is filled with claims like this from all over:
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez also made a similar claim...

Georgian Green Party leader claimed that Moscow had instigated an earthquake on Georgian territory...

Russia has accused the US military of employing such devices in Afghanistan to trigger the devastating 7.2 magnitude earthquake...

US Secretary of Defense William Cohen also expressed concern about activities that "can alter the climate, set off earthquakes, volcanoes remotely through the use of electromagnetic waves

If it is a make people stupid weapon, it seems to be working quite well.

Similar to the 2024 thread, here I start the 2025 thread. As always it is getting increasingly difficult to predict, so I will make a list based on other article predictions. You can also leave your prediction here. Here are the predictions of 2024 that did not make it: Peter Shor, David Deutsch and all the rest of the quantum computing community (various sources) Pablo Jarrillo Herrero, Allan McDonald and Rafi Bistritzer for magic angle in twisted graphene (various sources) Christoph...
Thread 'My experience as a hostage'
I believe it was the summer of 2001 that I made a trip to Peru for my work. I was a private contractor doing automation engineering and programming for various companies, including Frito Lay. Frito had purchased a snack food plant near Lima, Peru, and sent me down to oversee the upgrades to the systems and the startup. Peru was still suffering the ills of a recent civil war and I knew it was dicey, but the money was too good to pass up. It was a long trip to Lima; about 14 hours of airtime...
