THE STATISTICIAN

"The fact that the birthrate has been increasing ever since ....  reminds me of the definition of a statistician: He is a person who has his head in the oven and his feet in the deep freeze and says “on the average I feel fine.”

From: Proceedings of the Annual Convention of the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, Volumes 72-77, 1958, Page 27.

What did Nostradamus predict about the death of Queen Elizabeth II and the reign of Charles III?

 

Mario Reading, in his 2009 book "The Complete Prophecies of Nostradamus," predicted that Queen Elizabeth would die circa 2022, and following a crisis provoked by the Church of England over his civil marriage to Camilla Parker Bowles, would eventually abdicate the throne, and that Harry would actually become King. It's already wrong, because the prediction was that Canada, Australia, New Zealand and perhaps the other Commonwealth Realms would have become republics by now.
Fascinating and curious, but can anyone definitively understand whatever Nostradamus was "seeing"? I think not. But, if it happens, you heard it here first.
