Hello everyone, my name's Haydn. I only found out about this site very recently, and imagine my joy at discovering that as I'm 17 I'm going to be one of the ground troops in the greatest war in the history of mankind. Yay. That's exactly how I felt when I discovered the theory. I hope that when the...

Re: Financial topics

Dear John, I've been dealing for a long time with people who simply say that nothing like the 1930s Great Depression could ever happen again, because of all the institutions that were put into place to prevent it.

Re: Basics of Generational Theory

Dear John Xenakis, Dear Golden Fox, Thanks for the compliment.

Re: Financial topics

A month ago I was discussing the economic situation with my Mom. I told her that I believe we are heading into another great depression and she denied that any such depression could ever occur, taking a more optimistic view that we will get nothing worse then an average recession like many others Am...

Re: Basics of Generational Theory

Dear John Xenakis, thank you very much for creating this forum. I have been reading Generations: A History of America's future 1584 - 2069 and have found their theory to be a fascinating view on American history. I have been reading about your theories for several months by now and have wanted you t...
