Hugh Posted December 21, 2012 #1 Share Posted December 21, 2012 According to the doomsayers, THE END will occur at the solstice in about 8 hours from now. For me, that would be at 6:11 a.m. tomorrow morning Toronto time. I found a timer for it at timeanddate.com http://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/maya?p0=250 I don't actually believe the world will end, but I thought it would be good to have a thread that counts down to the predicted time... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely Guy Posted December 21, 2012 #5 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Yeah, I found that site too. I love their disclaimer! "Please note that we do not endorse any apocalyptic claims." I'm set. Spaghetti dinner, half a 6 pack and a mickey of Bacardi. Also have 2 DVD's to watch, '2012' by Roland Emmerich and '2012 Supernova' by Anthony Fankhauser, apparently the second one's not so good. Then again, neither was the first one. Oh, 7 hours, 44 minutes, 22 seconds to go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, I think I'm on 7 or 8 by now. Never mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wickian Posted December 21, 2012 #8 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Well, considering this only happens once every 26 thousand years, I'd say it's something worth watching the sky for if I'm still awake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Posted December 21, 2012 Author #9 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Oh c'mon, how many 'end of the worlds' do you you get to experience?! Yeah, this is only gonna happen once, and if you're asleep you'll miss everything!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I know. With the whole 'end of the world' thing going on you'd figure they'd have a better time slot. Oh yeah, the Cancun Doomsday Clock is off a bit. They say 5:11 am. It's actually closer to 5:11:37. So, at least there's that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abramelin Posted December 21, 2012 #11 Share Posted December 21, 2012 (edited) On December 22 a public execution by hanging of Jose Arguelles, the new age nutcase who started it all. I never believed all that drivel, but the bad thing is that young kids actually committed suicide out of fear. .

Abramelin Posted December 21, 2012 #13 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Now if all of you think it's over after today, a new date has already been published: 2014 AZ5 is the object which currently has the highest chance of impacting Earth in March of 2013,” said Quami Lochmo of the European Space Agency’s Solar System Missions Division in the Dutch city of Noordwijk. “We are currently also in the process of making governments around the world aware of the situation,” Lochmo said. “ The near-Earth asteroid 2014 Az5 has an impact probability of 1 in 125 for March 17, 2013, said Donald Lochmo. This impact probability isn’t set in stone, however. It can be changed slightly. http://weeklyworldnews.com/headlines/44608/giant-asteroid-heading-for-earth/ It never stops.

Abramelin Posted December 21, 2012 #24 Share Posted December 21, 2012 everyone still ok? y'all belted in nice and tight? Now that's nice: I live 7 floors up, but I can now moor my dingy to my balcony. Water as far as I can see. Only tall buildings sticking out from the water. Many people having a swim here and there. And all is brightly lit by some big red planet. Cool. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
