Heh ... next war, I think we shouldn't allow rebetting when our original date passes eight months early. We're just all quickly coalescing around the perfect moment.

I wonder if a mathematician couldn't take the thousand-plus guesses already made and plot a centralized "Average Date/Time." Then we could see how close our mass semieducated (very semi) guess was to reality.

Late evening March 19, 2003 or just after midnight on March 20, 2003.

7PM isn't "late evening," but that was still a good guess.

Late evening March 19, 2003 or just after midnight on March 20, 2003.

Since I usually fast from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday. I was in the middle of my fast when I felt as if I had a prophetic insight. In January when I pressed for an actually time, logic stepped in. At which time I posted this:

Posted by MSCASEY to snippy_about_it On News/Activism 01/19/2003 10:27 PM PST #716 of 1,066 Sorry that was March 20, 2003 3:33 Standard Pacific Time!

All I can hope and pray is that what I felt or that came to me on November 9, 2002, when I picked this date, does not come to pass. But on the other hand it is time. MCD

It seems that the official attack time was Wednesday, March 19, 2003 at 9:30 P.M. EST according to President Bush.

Do you agree with this as the official time?

Who would you say is the winner of the Attack on Iraq Betting Pool?

I was assuming that the attack would begin with a massive bombardment of Baghdad. Perhaps there should also be a winner in the "shock and awe" category?

As a participant, I should probably let someone else determine the official start time.
