nutter
Proper nutter.

This chap I know used to have a great job with his lawyer wife in Hong Kong. They made a mint and retired a couple of years ago. Anyway, coz he had so much time on his hands he started pootling about in the internet and missed b3ta poor sod and ended up getting sucked into all those videos like Loose Change and What The Bleep Do We Know? and the like.

Anyway, two years later he believes that all conspiracies are linked, all wars are planned, that THEY are watching us through our tv's, that all disease is manmade and all that stuff. He has since spent all his money £1.5m+ and I mean ALL his money on a plot of land in Australia in the bush. He has sunk 5 ships containers into the desert full of longlife food, and has moved his wife a 3 young children out there. He was back a few weeks ago saying goodbye to his friends and family as he is sure of near total destruction of the Earth in December 21 2012.

Nice guy though...

21 December 2012
isn't that when the Mayans predicted disaster would strike?

Did they use the same calendar as us then?

no
if my sources are to be believed they had their own calender which was incredibly accurate and by translation the date they predicted was 21 december 2012

Thereabouts...
The Mesoamerican Long Count calendar predicts a cataclysm around 21 Dec 2012, but it's likely somethign that's been misunderstood.

Arrrgh!
I'm sick of people telling me I'm going to rue the day I ever advanced through time to 2012! Maybe that's just when they thought they should end the calender! Maybe the thought they could write more dates later! What disasters are supposed to have struck at the end of each "era" or the calender!

I'm going to invent my OWN doom date. IT'S ANY DATE PEOPLE TELL ME THIS IN ALL SERIOUSNESS. They will rue the day they ever tried to make me quake! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!
