More Than a Cold Spell

[Ed Hurst]

This is not a word from God, just me flapping my gums, as it were. If the projections are correct that we are headed for a solar minimum (currently called the "Eddy Minimum"), then food prices will soar. I've seen some estimates, and the folks who project futures prices for the commodities markets are looking at prices more than doubling by this time next year.

Now, this is on top of the warnings we've had to stock up and be ready for government to collapse over the next few months. It's a good thing to have canned goods and barter materials (including precious metals, if possible) for the immediate threat, but on your long term prayer list, you might want to chat with God about the solar minimum that still might be down the road a ways.

Reminds me of that Eric Dollard video I'm currently trying to find, where he talks about the solar max/min. I hope the channel that had it didn't deactivate but it's possible. Interesting stuff.

Found it. I felt like it was buried in the Youtube and Google search results, but not so in DuckDuckGo.

The first few minutes are the relevant ones.

[Ed Hurst]

Yeah, Dollard has some wild ideas about the earth. However, what he says about the solar cycle is a widely held understanding. You can find a lot of similar stuff all over, and it's actually not very controversial at all.

I wish I had the background knowledge to know if he is on to something, just bonkers, or completely right.

[Ed Hurst]

I agree. It's hard to know if he's onto something because his expertise is way beyond common knowledge. I certainly know how it feels to be in his shoes at times. But in the final analysis, I simply have little use for most of what he talks about. I'm familiar with parts of it, but if he's right, it won't change my life much, and it's obvious nobody with the means to change our technology investments is going to listen to him for awhile. Whether it's accurate is not really the question, but whether I can use it. I don't see much of it informing things I do, and I already am utterly convinced that the mainstream is hiding things, so that's not the question, either.
