I'm coining a new term: OVERNIGHTMARE
While posting in another thread about the sudden convergence of disasters; The Bush administration, overpopulation, global warming, peak oil, I realized we needed a term to sum up what's suddenly happing to our world. Post yours.

2. "PORTENT"
Definition:That which portends, or foretoken; esp., that which portends evil; a sign of coming calamity; an omen; a sign.

I don't use this term lightly. It's a riveting book by James Herbert.
A little on the sci-fi side, but still sends a clear message.

4. Catastrophic Convergence
Too many irresolvable meta-issues approaching the same zero point.

8. Apocalypse
But then again, that word means the end of civilization AS WE KNOW IT, doesn't mean the end of the world, just the end of things as we know it.
