did Nostradamus predict this before it happen or you just find the interpretation after the fact?
Nostradamus was not english educated person, he was a french men. So interpet that to english might sound weird. Maybe he did predict it before it happen but im no nostradamus and i cant see the event what he sees through his eyes. Same thing as you dream and you tell me but i still cant get the picture of your dream except what i think according to your statement but still not 100% until it occurs.

What about those that NEVER came true?
You're playing with dice. Go to a casino and follow a seasoned gambler around and bet alongside him. If he wins 3 times in a row, do you go worship him as God ? What about his previous attempts in screwing up and lost ? Did you dismiss that because what's most important that he has won enough to convince you ?
Added on June 14, 2010, 5:26 pmtalking about details. Nostradamus NEVER provided any. You assumption of "them didn't care" doesn't ring a bell.
But I do pity people's shallowness that caused him to be condemned in such a this way. What do we expect, those were feudal societies.
1) "What about those that NEVER came true?" People love big events, but small events it a no eye-opener. If a small oil spill, its a clean-up and get back to work style. But if its a big oil spill like the Gulf Oil Spill, its a disaster never been seen, eye-opener, can be found in the prophecies book and etc etc.
2.) There is a hardcore gambler (in Discovery Channel that talk about Nostradamus prediction) did try out this attempt of using dice and predict his winnings % to show nostradamus a phoney. He FAIL in predicitng his own winnings and place it on LUCK. Prediction on a big book requires a LOTS of luck.
3.) He never provide details because of a reason. OPPURTUNITY !! He did predict the King's death. If in those times they can see the event before it happens and change it, you will see us nowadays as a whole nation of a world.
