That doesn't meet the verification standard I have in mind; the group must agree objectively that a prediction is met. News reports, pictures, data etc. to support a correct prediction.. In balance to that, we don't want trivial predictions like "the sun will rise" & so forth.This is a strange claim, but it's a scientific strange claim if we make it that way.
