What's on 17 Oct 2014 ???
No idea ??? Seriously
Why not? New York, October 17, 2014, 10:34 am. Several large banks simultaneously go under. The NYSE leads the way as all major stock exchanges go into free-fall until trading is stopped. By noon, there are lines at banks and ATMs around the world, shortly followed by riots when the banks shutter their doors and the ATMs run out of cash. Within 24 hours, most businesses stop accepting debit and credit cards. Within 48 hours, people who don't have cash and don't keep at least a couple of days food in their homes are getting dangerously hungry. Within 72 hours, wholesale looting begins.
October 25, 2014. The last message before the internet fails is posted at the FPA. It's from me. It says, "I told you so."
