George Harrison died on November 29, 2001, after long battling cancer.
The youngest Beatle, and the most "spiritual" of the group was much
loved by family and friends and the great number of fans of his own
music as well as the repertoire of Beatles hits. Don Watson suggested
that his passing should be a GCP event, and provided information about
a minute of silence to honor George Harrison on
December 3, 2001, as a formal prediction.
"As a tribute, Harrison's widow and son asked fans to join them for
a minute of meditation.
"Olivia and Dhani invite you to join them in a minute of meditation in
honour of George's journey, wherever you are on Monday at 1:30
p.m. PST (1830 GMT)."
The first figure shows this period, which has a modest positive
departure from expectation, with Chi-square 67.819 on 60 degrees of
freedom, and a p-value of 0.228.
The actual time of death was approximately 21:30, GMT, on the 29th of
November. The next figure shows the GCP data for the 29th, with the
time of death indicated. The whole day shows a persistent trend, though
it is not statistically significant. From a purely aesthetic
perspective, it does symbolize the poignancy of Harrison's passage.
