It's all been caused by a change in the earth's rotation and now, and here's a surprise; most scientist and prognosticators in general say they not only saw it was it coming but that they have been warning us about it all along.

This is the most important change to civilization in recorded Human history. Apparently every 15,000 years the earth rotation speeds up a little or slows down and it causing some minor changes to life on earth. Minor except to humans who experience violent nausea and vertigo which results in apathy, disorientation and loss of desire to consume. Only the French seem immune, perhaps due to the warnings of Jean Sartre, in his novel Nausea, or maybe its something else.

The effects of the world' economy have been drastic, and economic winners and losers are still being sorted out, but most of us are suffering most of the time from one long nightmarish hangover, literally at least hangover like symptoms, if you mixed too much beer, wine and cheap Russian Cherry flavored Vodka.

I'm sick now and can't stand to type, so let me quote a short newspaper paragraph on the situation,

" circa 2009, for unknown reasons the earth's rotation, sped up slightly causing widespread sickness in humans with to date no known antidote. All humans are effected, but unequally, and no known effect has been observed in any other species. The primary effects have been economic, and the best treatment seems to be to slow life down on a personal level and it is claimed that symptoms are alleviated somewhat by being in a serene rural setting. It is not known how the condition will last, or if people will develop a tolerance.

Effects of the change in the earth rotation can be summarized in four main categories:

1. Economic- after an initial plunge of 35% the US stock markets actually have gained for the conflagration has been deemed a black swan type contrary indicator and therefore good for business, although no one is sure it will be good for what businesses but it will be good for the stock market , which looks ahead they say, to one day the hangover-type symptoms will end.

2. Social- They who were first will be last- there are numerous changes in the pecking order, as those who cope worse to the nausea are forced to quit jobs, cash in saving etc. Ominous is the elderly seem to cope better than the young.
