So claims Harvard professor Graham Allison. He's even written a book on it: http://tinyurl.com/5aw52 Why am I even freaking out over this? Probably PMS. Or maybe I feel guilty for not being in the Cold War period?

Why should I care: I live in the middle of nowhere!

Sun might go out.
Asteroid might hit.
Plague might re-surface.
Cheer up.

It's just falling very sloooowly.

Besides, a supervolcano is like a million times more likely to happen anywhere remotely close to our lifetimes than either of your unstoppable options.

Didn't "Atom Bomb" drop everywhere in 1997?

We Have Explosive, you know

gabbneb (gabbneb), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Don't Bomb When You're The Bomb!!!!!!!!

The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:49 (twenty-one years ago)

B-b-but didn't Bono and co. just issue instructions on how to dismantle said bomb?

He forgot steps four through thirteen.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:53 (twenty-one years ago)

when did the Mayans predict the end of the world? (I think it was within the next 10 years)

Space Is the Place (Space Is the Place), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:54 (twenty-one years ago)

December 21st, 2012.

Andrew Farrell (afarrell), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:55 (twenty-one years ago)

HOLA

The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:55 (twenty-one years ago)

It's not really the end of the world, it's the end of the calendar round, after which a new cycle starts

Orbit (Orbit), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:55 (twenty-one years ago)

Ah, THERE'S the date for the World FAP.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Are we prepared for the Mayan spin cycle?

The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Do not dislodge it while in operation.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:56 (twenty-one years ago)

Man, fuck the Mayans.

n/a (Nick A.), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:57 (twenty-one years ago)

a new cycle of what?

Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:57 (twenty-one years ago)

is that the beginning of China's world domination?

Space Is the Place (Space Is the Place), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:57 (twenty-one years ago)

i knew you guys would cheer me up. sort of. there's still time for some faps. and making babies! MAKE BABY NOT WAR. /schtoopeed mode

stevie nixed (stevie nixed), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:57 (twenty-one years ago)

A new calendar cycle. The Mayans have a circular view of time, where history literally repeats itself, but with different players. The same KINDS of things happen.

Orbit (Orbit), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 15:58 (twenty-one years ago)

yeah, aren't they like really similar to ancient Egyptians with their Sun worshipping? In fact isn't this cycle something to do with Sun spots, or have I been reading too many internet web sites.

Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 16:02 (twenty-one years ago)

You mean after 2012 there'll be another other silly messageboard with the same silly conversations, only that there's "different players" doing them?

OH NO!!!

Tuomas (Tuomas), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 16:03 (twenty-one years ago)

So eventually the Leafs will win another cup?

Thermo Thinwall (Thermo Thinwall), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 16:03 (twenty-one years ago)

or, continuing my post, is it that sun spots have been proved to have a set cycle similar to the mayan calender. i may be mixing it up here.

Ste (Fuzzy), Wednesday, 24 November 2004 16:05 (twenty-one years ago)

Yes Tuomas, but only after 2,000 years have passed.

"the sun is a mass of incandescent gas
A giant nuclear furnace
Where hydrogen is built into helium
At temperatures of millions of degrees."

They Might Be Mayants
