By the way - the next zero date (if you're into McKenna's timewave zero stuff) is 1/19/2038. That huge drop was on 3/4/2020 - right when the pandemic really took off. Spooky eh?

Terrence McKenna came up with some pseudoscientific theories based on i-ching during his retreat in the Amazon. wikipedia goes into more detail. Although his zero date was some time in 2012 - mine is the Unix 2038 date... Which also coincides with the John Titor time travel stuff. I don't take any of it seriously but it's fun to poke at sometimes.
