Oh, Nostradamus was an interesting man and there is no denying this. Even today, many individuals are still talking about him. I could only home that people talk about me for as long as they have him – of course, he has given everyone a reason to talk about him – he has made predictions. Not only are they predictions, but they are predictions that have come true.
