(bio and articles / forum)
I’m sitting around the pool at the hotel in the Bahamas and watching the old and young having a great time, like they have not a care in the world, and they probably don’t at that moment in time, but I feel like yelling at the top of my lungs, “Planet X is coming and you’d better listen up!”
But I have to come to the realization that I can’t save the world and that is the most helpless and frustrating feeling ever. I watch as babies are trying to learn how to swim in the baby pool with Mom at their side, not knowing the fate that awaits them.
I walked around the pool and the lobby wearing my PlanetXnews.com t-shirts, hoping they would spark someone’s curiosity but, alas, even though it is staring them right in the face, they do not see — the tourists, that is.
As I lay there drinking a tropical drink, basking in the sun, I feel guilty and wonder how to wake people up, but at least I did make an attempt by having the t-shirt made and handing out Doomsday Dave personalized business cards with this Web site on them, which I have given out about 20 so far, but mostly to locals who were inquisitive.
I watch the tranquil ocean which looks so peaceful and I am imagining the ocean receding at a rapid rate, then see a tsunami a mile high on the horizon lunging its way inland at a rapid rate and then the people running for their lives to reach high ground, but there isn’t any.
