Creepy....
I clicked on Travelbuzz, and the threads were, in order:
"Would you fly in a plane with no windows?"
"Have you ever run off an airplane after boarding"
"Would missing a crash be a "sign" for you?"
"Anyone Ever Travel Anywhere Dangerous And It Was?"
They say dogs can tell, without knowing why, that an earthquake is about to happen....technical analysis of futures/equities/FX assumes that you can recognize patterns in trading activity to predict what will happen next....
Anyone else wonder if the collection of spooky threads is a REALLY BAD THING?

If you are superstitious, yeah it is.
I remember having a conversation in chat the night before 9/11 with the FTer who decided not to take the UA flight they tried to rebook him on... and then talking to him on the phone about it the next day like "did that really happen to me"?
When I had my near fatal car crash in 1991, I dreamed about it the night before it happened. I also told two of my friends earlier that day that "I have a really bad feeling that I'm about to die".
I woke up in the middle of the night when my grandmother died, sat straight up in bed, and looked at the clock (this was when I used to sleep SOUNDLY through the night every night). Our phone rang less than five minutes later to tell us she had just passed on. And on the night of my car accident, my mother did the same thing... sat up and couldn't go back to sleep. She got the phone call from the hospital and said something to the effect of "yeah, I knew something had happened and was waiting for this call".
(Yes, I AM superstitious... why do you ask?!)
