From 1993:
No matter how bad things are, take heart, it could be worse: you could be
in California.
From 2003 August 17:
[The message was] planted there and then for posterity's sake, awaiting events
in August of 2003, to which it pertains.
And to the events and (literal) progressive breakdown and destruction of the state to follow, afterwards ... now past tense. Enjoy your hell; those of you fools who stayed behind, instead of heeding the warning.
Now, at last, we get to say: We Told You So!
