			=== '''Nostradamus''' ===

			Nostradamus (Latinised name of Michel de Nostredame) was one of the world's most famous publishers of prophecies. He is best known for his book Les Propheties, the first edition of which appeared in 1555.

			Since the publication of this book, which has rarely been out of print since his death, Nostradamus has attracted an almost cult following. His many enthusiasts, as well as the popular press, credit him with predicting numerous major world events.

			1. From the tone of his voice, it appears that he wasn’t in awe, but kind of disappointed instead.

			2. This girl, who was currently sitting on the substitute bench drinking the beverages the team had brought, was, without a doubt, Suzumiya Haruhi

			3. It was now March, and the end of term exams had just ended.

			4. Maybe it was done out of the school’s concern for letting students have a break after the end of term exams, but if you ask me, I’d pick longer holidays over intramural sports activities anytime.

			5. I agree completely with him. If Haruhi had joined the athletics (track and field) club, she would have been able to compete in the nationals right now.

			6. As I continued to watch another match that was taking place beside the first court, I gave Kunikida my reply.


			1 and 5 are explicitly scene present. 4 is only narration present, but it reflects a state of mind congruent with scene present - same decade at least. 2, 3 and 6 are representative examples of a pervasive emphasis on ‘storyboard immediacy.’ This was all in HC’s translation before I touched it. This all creates a cumulative impression.

			Of course I have no detailed idea as to how this relates to the original.--[[User:Nutcase\|Nutcase]] 13:14, 9 March 2007 (PST)
