World coming to end, give me a break

Can you believe that people actually believe it's coming. I know this for a fact, the only thing in life that changes is, the cloths we ware and the transportation. Human nature never changes.

Caught a bit of National Geographic Channel's Maya Apocalypsathon last night. Seems there's a Mayan tablet that mentions the date and that some event will happen. The rest is illegible. That's all the Apocalypse freaks apparently require.

Also saw that they are running an entire series about "Doomsday Preppers." Somehow that was never how I thought of National Geographic.

Reality is there IS an unusual alignment of the sun, Earth and a planet or two with the Galactic center of our Milky Way galaxy on that date. But any calendar has to end sometime. The real wonder is the Mayans et al had all this astronomical knowledge and used it.
America must have the highest "goofs per capita" rating of any nation outside Antarctica.

Lester if the world really does come to an end, I am sure you will post all about it here on the forum.

Plus, the Mayan culture had pretty well vanished before the Spaniards arrived.
