Ronale Stevens puts out a very interesting theory on the prophecy, part of 
Which is:
>Third, those &*$%^#@ dots.  An ellipsis means one or more words have
>been left out.  Reading the prophecy is like trying to discern a face
>in a photo where significant features have been blacked out.
>
>Let's tackle those dots first.  There are five sets of them.  Two
>sets have only three dots.  This means that words were left out from
>the middle of a sentence.
>
>Three sets have four dots.  This can mean one of four things:
>
>(a) the missing words are the last part of a quoted sentence
>or
>(b) the missing words are the first part of a quoted sentence
>or
>(c) the missing words are the last part of one sentence and the first
>part of the next
>or
>(d) a whole sentence or more has been left out.
>
>As I see it, we can fill in those missing parts as we choose.


Interesting idea here, but I read the "..." as dramatic pauses in the middle 
of a sentence and "...." as dramatic pauses in between sentences. True, when 
you're quoting someone on paper it would indicate words being left out but 
this was spoken.

-Jens, who likes the rest of the theory
