For those who don't know, the I Ching is this ancient chinese book that is able to predict future stuff. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Ching)

And well there's the online version: http://flytrapinteractive.com/~complimentary/iching/index.html

So I typed in the below inquirty and behold! The future!!!

The answer to your question, "Will Ron Paul be elected President of the United States?" is:
December 20, 2007

11. T'ai - Peace
-- --
-- -- above K'un The Receptive, Earth
-- --
-----
----- below Ch'ien The Creative, Heaven
-----

The Judgement

Peace. The small departs,
The great approaches.
Good fortune. Success.

The Image

Heaven and earth unite: the image of Peace.
Thus the ruler
Divides and completes the course of heaven and earth;
He furthers and regulates the gifts of heaven and earth,
And so aids the people.

Changing Lines

Changing yang at the bottom means:
When ribbon grass is pulled up, the sod comes with it.
Each according to his kind.
Undertakings bring good fortune.

Changing yang in the second place means:
Bearing with the uncultured in gentleness,
Fording the river with resolution,
Not neglecting what is distant,
Not regarding one's companions:
Thus one may manage to walk in the middle.

Changing yang in the third place means:
No plain not followed by a slope.
No going not followed by a return.
He who remains persevering in danger
Is without blame.
Do not complain about this truth;
Enjoy the good fortune you still possess.

Changing yin in the fourth place means:
He flutters down, not boasting of his wealth,
Together with his neighbor,
Guileless and sincere.

Changing yin in the fifth place means:
The sovereign I
Gives his daughter in marriage.
This brings blessing
And supreme good fortune.

Changing yin at the top means:
The wall falls back into the moat.
Use no army now.
Make your commands known within your own town.
Perseverance brings humiliation.


Ok so that doesn't quite answer the question but it does sound eerie. :p

I was in a band once that did a ton of Grateful Dead cover songs, and we used I-Ching coins to come up with a name for the band and it read : Fire on [the] Mountain. We didn't use the name, but we did get a good laugh out of it. :)
