I suspect that if a sufficiently advanced AI were to go through these many years of posts and compare them to the events in the news, it might notice a time or two when things got unheimlich. Perhaps everyone since Pepys who has rambled on has found that their words occasionally prefigured an event or two. And from time to time, I'll encounter an odd phase either in my writing or my reading, and then encounter precisely the same phrase later that day, either in reading or listening to something online. The sort of thing that might drive one a bit mad, except for the fact that it happens in relation to texts composed a hundred years ago--so if something afoot, it's afoot in the heavens, and those sorts of things can be seen with a clear, calm eye. More things in heaven and earth, Horatio.
