That post is really unclear and vague. The "end of 2008 / early 2009" bit looks like a coincidence. I'm guessing the reason the author made that speculation is because it was October 2008. He sounds like a crackpot who's just saying, "Something is about to happen!" Go pull up the guy's posts from 2006 and 2007. You'll probably find other similar conspiracy theories and baseless predictions.
Edit --
I guess it's a fake, anyway.
True. This is not really something that could be taken seriously, obviously. Since it happened quite a while ago.
So what is the meaning of this?. Speculation really, the same thing that happens in the forums right now but quite a few years ago.
