    Nah.

    "Moore told scientists that they could experience the phenomenon by jumping in the air at the precise moment the alignment occurred. If they do so, he promised, they would experience a strange floating sensation."

    I don't have to jump, whenever I smoked weed I experienced a strange floating sensation. These days inhaling helium doesn't work so well but it makes me talk funny. (You'd think I was tanked while posting here.)

    Stop huffing helium. It is a finite resource.

    So, it isn't clear about what they mean by local time so that could mean 4:47AM on the east coast.
    That's this Saturday. I'll have the video ready to go.
    Could be a giant hoax but people should avoid driving during that time.

    Just says local time but I wondered about that. Guess I'll be up early or late. Either way.

    Encrypt everything. Even if you have nothing to hide. It increases the noise floor.
