Any All Exact 


January 30, 2002

Up till now, the stuff we've received has been relatively docile and laid-back. Theories, Master Chief identity proofs, stories of glory in the face of iminent death. But this is truly bizzare. Someone calling themselves "RevelationEightTwelve" sent this in last night, under the title, "The Great Day of Wrath."

I looked when he opened the sixth seal, and behold, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became like blood. And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree drops its late figs when it is shaken by a mighty wind. Then the sky receded as a scroll when it is rolled up, and every mountain and island was moved out of its place.

Now, maybe it's just me...but this sounds something like the Cortana Letters, and it also sounds like another Biblical reference. Break out your Bibles, folks...crack them open and turn to Revelation, 8:12. I'd do it myself, but...no bible. The thing making me sceptical is the e-mail addy: "FourthTrumpet@hotmail.com." Do AIs use Hotmail? Let's hope so.
