I want to know how it is going to happen and find the epicenter and setup a cooler of beers and a lawn chair and see it coming!

Do you think it's a coincidence that the underwater volcano was just found off the Cabo coast?
Tomorrow will be the wildest end-of-the-world party here in Asunción, at Shari's place.

I just wanted to get clear that it is socially acceptable to jeer at, and belittle anyone who wasted even a little energy on this subject. Isn't it
about time that there was a social cost for insanity?
Nice graphic. I can't imagine how anyone could find anything anomalous or unscientific about that forecast!!!!! Can I get an "Amen"? Oops, that was
the previous two or three "ends of the world". Sheeesh.

Some doctor I saw interviewed today says that what these periodic "End of the World" scenarios are really about is bilking money out of fools, who
flock to buy books and any other thing that will help them through the end-of-times. He cited the number of books published on today's prediction,
over a 1,000 different titles. He said they happen about every ten years or so (the last one was in 2000), probably about what the market for fools
will bear.
There most certainly is but one side to every story: the TRUTH. Variations of it are nothing but lies.

Al Gore has made millions with his false predictions! I am in the wrong business (and wrong political party) to bilk money out of fools!

Just returned from our kayak trip around the Asunción island.
There was hardly any wind, so we pedaled and paddled around the island.
With the lack of wind, we had much more control of where we could go, so we got to within 25 feet of shore, and almost landed on one of the beaches,
but there was a lot of heavy sea weed right on shore. No problem getting back out, but going in is a little tough with large jagged boulders 10' on
either side.
The seals an sea lions were really a hoot!
It's quite an experience to have a few hundred seals and sea lions following you about 40' behind!
WOW!
Shari baked a cake for the "END OF WORLD" party.
I am still in disbelief what that chick can do with cooking. It's like cooking in a third world country, but she makes it look so easy with her tools.
What I cooked the last few days, I had to do it with MY tools from home, and brought with me. That's what made it look easy.
Those of you who have not been here before, you don't know what you are missing!
...This morning we had CRAB OMELETTE...out of this world!
First class B&B!

They didn't factor in "leap years" so we still have a few more months to live. Math isn't my strong suit, maybe a Nomad with a calculator could figure
out how many February 29th's would have happened since the Mayan calender was chiseled...

"Al Gore has made millions with his false predictions! I am in the wrong business (and wrong political party) to bilk money out of fools!" So says
the noted climate scientist David Kier!!!
Stay somewhere close to reality and BAJA CALIFORNIA please, or give up on getting your ninety thousandth post this week.
Your inflammatory, purely TROLL, comment doesn't even have to do with the subject of end-of-the-world nuts. FACTUALLY, Mitt Romney bilked his
followers out of about a BILLION dollars as he self-destructed to his humiliating defeat. Fools you say...fools? What did the 53% get for their
money?

So that was the real global warming.
Why do Liberals insist and demand that achievers pay the way for nonachievers who are to lazy to succeed, or are just failures by their own choice?
Criminals prefer unarmed victims, dictators prefer unarmed subjects.
Why do ignorant people continue their blabbering when it only proves to others how stupid they are.

IT GOT POSTPONED!!!!! Here ya go----
YUCATAN – Mayan scholars have updated their doomsday prophecy. The world will end in 2015, not 2012.Oops…. They made a mistake. There’s good news
for those who were fearing the 2012 Mayan apocalypse. They counted wrong. The world is not going to end in December 2012. Instead, it’s going to
end on September 3, 2015. Update your daily planners!
A new critique, published as a chapter in the new textbook “Calendars and Years: Astronomy and Time in the Ancient and Medieval World” argues that the
accepted conversions of dates from Mayan to the modern calendar are off. This coupled with a new book, “We Are All Going To Die In 2015″ by
Fritz Barnkopf are rewriting the Mayan doomsday playbook that has been popularized in our culture over the last ten years.
The problem was discovered when researchers realized the Mayan calendar was converted to today’s Gregorian calendar using an erroneous calculation
called the GMT constant, named for the last initials of three early Mayanist researchers.
But the GMT constant is completely bogus. “The Mayan researchers of the past twenty years put too much stock in the GMT,” said Mayan expert Robert
Wannamaker. “They probably were chewing on too many cocoa leaves. The fact is that the GMT constant is 2 years and 271 days off. We’ve proven that
conclusively hear at The Scripps Institute.”
The apocalypse is now delayed. This is a stunning blow to all the merchandisers that were seeking to capitalize on the “end-of-world” prophecy
BEFORE the world ends. “Man, I was selling all sorts of 2012 doomsday paraphernalia. Now, I gotta go back and make it all again for 2015. It’s a
real drag,” said 2012 fanatic, Judd Barkley.
Hollywood is jumping right on the 2015 bandwagon. Producers are lining up to make the 2012 sequel, 2015. “It’s great for us,” said Producer Tracey
Barnham. “I hope that they extended it again in a few years, so we can keep this franchise going.”
Not likely. Mayan researchers are unanimous on the end-of-world data. The world will disappear in 2015. You might want to plan accordingly.
Bad news: we’re all going to die. Good news: We got three more years! Woo-hoo!!!
