Good one . I remember all the Y2K crap and it came and now it's gone . Lets just wait and see. They claim all the planets will align and that will cause mass natural disasters, but I would rather have nature being the cause then humans.

y2k was a computer programming issue, not the end of the world.... A ton of planets align and the sun shoots right through the milkyway on this day in 2012, from what scientists have gathered every other time this event has happened, the planet went near extinct.. pole reversals etc. Has to make you think just a little...

Try telling the computer geeks that. They were freaking out lol.

Like I said, if it's nature that will cause it, I'm cool with it. Nature is very powerful and if this does happen, there will be nothign we can do.

If you think about it in a certain way, 2012 also mark date relelates to a "programming" quirk with the Mayan calendar. Basically they use a base 20 counting system where we use a base 10. Nobody thinks everytime we finish a century or milennia (ie X999 -> X000) that the world is going to end just because we flipped over some 0's. Hell, the world is not recreated everynight when the time goes from 23:59 to 00:00.

IDK what else you are referring too tho. Our solar system is embedded as a part of the Milky way galaxy and moves with it. The magnetic poles flip quite often (in geological time.) Its even occured during the lifetime of the Homo genus and we survived (not that Palin believes in either biological interpretation of Homo...lol.) The sun flips its poles more than once a decade.


Should make for a fun FX movie tho. There are a few others coming out that looks cool. Wonder about that Avatar movie... Reminds me of Halo for some reason.

I wasn't so much in reference to any calendar, good point though.. but instead on how the planets all align and the sun will blast through the Milky Way to us... this is the event that has some thinking.. Idk about any of the other doomsday speculation. I mean if the Mayan calendar was deliberately made to end on this day that would be something :) I'm of the mind that humans had some assistance w/ the great pyramids and other grand builds that we pretty much couldn't build even today with all our technology and glory, so who knows maybe someone helped w/ such a detailed calendar.

They did and only the open minded can figure it out. A more spectacular place is in South America where you'll find precision work done to stones (Some very large) at very high sea level and very old. The precision of the work couldn't be done with simple tools. I would love to meet a higher intelligence form of a human. I would ask them to make me an absolute rock solid drive unit and power source for my R/C vehicles .

If anyone has the History channel, the program will air again on Nov. 10th.
