Cool, I'm kind of a 2012 nerd. I'll keep my eye out for that one.

2012... are you a believer in the Dec 21st theory or just the General 2012 theory?

I'm not sure about the exact date, so I would have to go with the General Theory. You've got to admit there is something unnerving about all the planets aligning in that year.

Yeah, the Dec 21st 2012 thing is the end of the Myan Calendar.

The planets aligning and the Giant cross in the Galexy is a bit unnerving. I also always found it interesting that whatever occurs is supposed to happen when the sun rises and that Giant cross on the mountain in Colorado (Mountain of the Holy Cross I think) will be directly facing the giant cross in the sky.

So do you buy into the end of the world or the shifting of the earths axis thing?

I don't know if I buy into anything, other than (for now), scientific facts. It may not be the End of the World as we know it, but atomospheric, magnetic, and other natural conditions will change with the alignment. Of that, I have no doubt.

Have you heard of the I-Ching Calendar?

The I Ching is some kind of Ancient book, even older than the Bible (is what they say). Anyway, some scientist found a hidden code in part of it that correlates to many major historical events that have happened in the past. All sorts of wars and other strange things are predicted for the present and future. All these Events end on December 21st, 2012!

-Which means, (in my opinion), TWO separate calendars were found from 2 very different cultures from each side of the world that are identical in an 'End Date' - 2012.

I think the Souix also had something major happening in 2012... I'm sure about the year - just not which tribe it was.

And, X-Files fans, don't forget that the alien invasion of Earth was known to be set for December 21st, 2012. ;)

Personally I don't believe in any of the 2012 stuff. But if the world does end that year, I'll admit I was wrong, and buy you all a Coke.

I quit drinking soft drinks.

I guess you're out of luck, my friend. Unless you would accept all of my AIG stock instead.

Rusty,you don't think it strange that this year was predicted by so many cultures and it is the same year when all the planets align? You're right - I don't know if its a foretelling of Doomsday in the literal sense of the word, but something major is going to happen! I'll take an 'I Owe You' on the AIG Stock - lol!

It was the Hopi tribe. Keep in mind, folks, that the planets align on a fairly regular basis and nothing bizarre happens (I recently read this somewhere), also, if the Mayans--who were a fascinating culture, no doubt about it--predicted this impending 2012 doomsday, why couldn't they foresee their own demise?

No, I understand that Chris. The planets have been in 'alignement' every so often during the billions of years our solar system has been around. But, the 2012 prophecy is based on 'Perfect Alignment' which is almost impossible. As for the Mayans, they did not have access to Ms. Cleo & her psychic hotline as we do today so unfortunately they died.

Seriously though, I don't think the Mayans 'predicted' anything; I guess I shouldn't have used those words before. We only know that their calendar ends in the year 2012 so human nature dictates that we get scared to death and expect the worst. I do feel however, that something - at least according to natural events will take place.

From a special I saw the alignment that will occur happens once every 13000 years and will make a perfect cross in the sky through the constellations of the zodiac.

My Mom watched the same special and called me as soon as it was over... she's planning on starting a garden so that we can all have veggies once the earth tilts on it's axis. I laughed and told her we'd need chickens, cows and horses too... and that I didn't think her neighborhood would allow them.

Though if I get new dogs before then, I won't neuter them until after... just to make sure they don't go extinct... it would be a sad world with no puppies!

We're all doomed!

Lucky for us I've written a step by step manual of how to survive our impending deaths. So, for a 'special price' of only $499.95, you too can save yourself, your neighbors, your families, and whatever small farm animals are close to you! Hurry; you only have 3 years left!

Free S&H if you also purchase 'Now What?' for only $945.49

Can I get a discount on the book if I only want the sections about saving myself, my family, maybe a guinea pig?

Someone who knows how to grow a garden
Boat of some sort (for use if the polar icecaps melt)

Man... so much to do and only a few years left to do it.
