I'm sorry Jimmijazz....

But other than your fortune cookie source, is there something significant about Oct 15th?

Why would your fortune cookie, or anything else for that matter, indicate Oct 15th or earlier?

Thanks

BTW. I'll bore you with a little true Chinese restaurant story: Years ago I was skiing on Mammoth Mountain in Califorina. Late in the afternoon we got hit with a medium size earthquake. About 4.3 on the Reichter scale. And then right after that we got it with a 4 and then a 3.5 and these quakes starting coming about every 15 minutes. It turns out the quakes were being triggered by magma moving under the mountain.

Within a few seconds of every 15 minute another one would hit. It was amazing how regular these quakes were. Always about the same magnitude and the same time.

The power in Mammoth went out so we drove down the mountain to Bishop to get some dinner. We picked a Chinese restaurant and ordered our food. While we were waiting a much bigger quake hit. Something around 5.5. Everything flew off the tables. The lights went out and we crawled under the table. The place was pitch black. All you could hear were other people in the restaurant on the floor heavily breathing.

Suddenly I heard a woman's voice in the dark standing next to our table. She said, "Sorry I can only give you the chicken. I can't give you the pork. The cook ran out the door. "
