Nostradamus: Giant comet to collide with planet Earth on August 19th

The prophet predicted Greece would find itself in the epicenter of the impact

Leading newspapers, governmental institutions, public and scientific organizations started receiving anonymous emails this week with “To all people of the Earth” in the subject line. The emails warn of a catastrophe which is supposedly to take place on August 13th or 14th 2004 at the Olympic Games opening. The anonymous writer refers to Nostradamus's 10th Century, Quatrain 74. The prophet predicted: “The year of the great seventh number accomplished, It will appear at the time of the games of slaughter: Not far from the great millennial age, When the buried will go out from their tombs.”

The terrifying prophecy is about the year 2004, the opening of the Olympic Games in Greece.  There is yet another interpretation. American researcher of Nostradamus's legacy R.W. Welch wrote a book titled “Comet of Nostradamus. August 2004 – Impact!” Welch analyzed 18 quatrains of the prophet and came to conclusion a giant comet will collide with planet Earth. It will explode in Greece after scorching the south of Europe. According to Welch's research, the impact will take place on August 19th, 2004.
