Larry Parr made numerous predictions a while back. The vast majority did not
come to pass. Nevertheless, a couple did come true and now Parr rubs them
in our face. Then along comes Blair to remind us of Parr's failed
predictions.
And what does our dear Larry say? He tries to weasel out of them by
claiming subjunctives and conditionals. Don't you see? If he's right, he
knew it. If he's wrong ... well, he can't be wrong ... it's these
subjuntives.
Gotta love these journalistic standards.
