I'm sorry to raise this but I feel I have to. My wife and I heard about the Madrid bombing over breakfast on the 11th. All the talk was about who did it? and was it timed to disrupt the Spanish Elections that weekend, I so, why not on election day? I said to Moira, that there had to be some significance to the date, 'why today and not tomorrow or yesterday?' When I got back that evening (Wednesday) Moira had worked out that Madrid bombing was exactly 911 days after NY 911 (that includes 2004 leep year). On Thursday there was no reference to this on the news. On Friday, still no reference, so I phoned the BBC, Lesley Riddoch show which broadcasts here every mid week lunch time and is a very topical debate forum, broadcast live on air. I told the interviewer what our observation was but it didn't get broadcast on air. Instaid, the show kept on with the debate about, who did the bombing? I later emailed BBC Scotland, but got no reply. I read Time magazine, but no mention within their feature article about 911 days. I emailed National BBC but by this time (after the Spanish elections) the view had come round to the idea that it was that an Islamic fundamentalist bombing and the Spanish Government had been voted out. Now the point is this, 911 being US emergency call number, is a number these people are playing with, so what's next? My conclusion is that the next attack will be in 911 days after Madrid. Thats 17th /18th April. I guess all the authorities know this, after all, there's lots of highly paid folk employed to work these things out, but nobody's saying. Thereafter, 911 minutes etc. I hope we're wrong. Jim.
