Snake Mountain "Yucca Mountain" is located within the Western Shoshone Nation and has long been a place of powerful spiritual energy for the Shoshone and the Paiute.
There is a centuries-old story of Snake Mountain that is still taught to the children of the Western Shoshone Nation.
"Someday when we wake that snake up it will get mad and rip open," Shoshone Spiritual Leader Corbin Harney wrote in his 1995 book "The Way it Is - One Water, One Air, One Mother Earth."
"With his tail, that snake will move the mountain, rip it open and the poison will come out on the surface."
Today Snake Mountain is called Yucca Mountain, site of the under-construction high-level nuclear waste repository, 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas and about 15 miles east of Death Valley in Inyo County.

I don't think I would be building anything of that nature on Indian sacred grounds...didn't those assholes ever see poltergeist, 1, 2, and 3?
The physics people have made new discoveries about moving data through time. What if that's possible and the Shoshone prophecy is right? What if they stumbled upon how to do it before we did? If you think about it too much, it gets really scary!
They must have missed them Jackie!
That sounds very interesting Joy, I like that kind of stuff.
The way this world seems to work, I've got my money on the Shoshone.
that prophecy sounds a lot more likely to come true than the mayan 2012 deal.
if i lived nearby, i'd move.
