This is nearly impossible. There are only 26 days until Thanksgiving, and we are still at block 198497 (11503 blocks remaining). To succeed, the average time per block needs to be less than 196 s, or slightly more than three minutes!

If this were true, the difficulty would be 269 times what it is now by Thanksgiving. That is equivalent to almost 5.4 PHz·h (where h denotes one SHA256(SHA256(...)) hash) of network power.

The four people who voted "yes" are insane!

November 24 isn't Thanksgiving. I'm pretty sure not even the Texans have it then.
