    Earthquake in Spain / Rome braces for 'prophet-predicted quake'

    Last night this story: The panic was sparked by rumours that seismologist Raffaele Bendandi, who died in 1979, predicted the city would be devastated by a quake on 11 May.

              Spain did used to be ruled by Rome though.
              While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                So did most of surrender merchants in Europe. Scotland obviously stood their ground.

                  Maybe the Romans did not want Scotland. It is full of strange people, you know.

                    There is just no way that that could be a coincidence.

                    I mean, the people that look after Bendandi's papers say there is no mention anywhere of an earthquake in 2011, and that they have no idea where this prediction is supposed to have come from, but they would say that wouldn't they? The Pope has obviously threatened them if they admit it. Lorca is only 2,000km away from Rome. That's, like, a millimetre in seismological distance.

                    This is a major wake up call for all of us. We must sit up and take serious notice of completely made up bollocks in future.
