Nostradamus

Nostradamus also predicted Pigs and Toasters:

Century I, Quatrain LXIV

De nuict soleil penseront avoir veu,
Quand le pourceau demi-homme on verra:
Bruict, chant, bataille, au ciel battre aperceu:
Es bestes brutes á parler lon orra.
At night they will think they have seen the sun,
when they see the half pig man:
Noise, screams, battles seen fought in the skies.
The brute beasts will be heard to speak.

Look at the whole century at http://www.newciv.org/~albert/nosty/quat2/1 (and if you don't recognize the clue in that URL, you wouldn't recognize a blatant clue if it was marching up and down, painted blue, and singing `blatant clues are here again' at the top of its lungs). (Unfortunately, the link is now dangling; you can confirm that this quatrain is authentic, though, by searching for Nostrodamus and "pig man" on the web searcher of your choice.)
