hi, i also read a book about ancient civilizations which i highly recommend because its about how we can prepare ourself from inside and start feeling what ancient worlds did and felt about our planet, the universe and the great respect they had for all forms of life...the book i most recommend to you all is

WISDOM OF THE HEART from FLORA ROCHA.

if someone can find a flaw in my plan please tell me but i think the best place to be at 2012 is ayers rock. Mainly because its right in the middle of a tectonic plate so there are no fault zones for hundreds of miles. Also it's nowhere near the coast and is 490m above sea level (838 when your on top of the rock). I also am aware that if it where a populated area falling debris and panicking crowds could play a huge part in survival chances but there are virtually no buildings and it's not very populated. However, lack of civilisation would mean a possibility of starving to death but I have been there once when i was 11 last year and its a mere 15 minute drive from a huge multi-hotel resort so resources and shelter wouldn't be too much of a problem. On the volcano front I've no idea but there are definitely no active volcanoes and no geysers.
I have recently watches the movie and the ending is way too far-fetched but it does give you a good idea of the enormity and scale of the disaster if it happens. Which it might not. But I would hate to be unprepared if it did and all the non-believers would be sitting ducks And again, if there is a flaw that i haven't noticed or a factor I haven't considered please mention it.

Hi! After watching the 2012 movie, it seemed too fantastical for all things to go on at once. I could see one or two things happening over a longer period of time 3-5 years. That's how it is unfolding daily now fo smaller
scaled disasters. I don't think anyone knows if something would happen.
The earth getting hotter and cooking us to death is going to force people to live in caves and in underground parking garages and buildings basements. We would die ,and stop emitting CO2 and the earth would start to correct its self slowly cooling off. With no cars, airplanes, factories, or cows, means a cooler earth. The other thing I worry about for the USA is the super volcano that could ruin America's bread basket. All people and animals breathing in the ash would die from lung damage. Also I worry about a new Ice age happening. From the melting glaciers I figure the water will desalinate the oceans and start new ocean currents, triggering storms, and so on. Starvation is something to worry about if your survive and diseases. Drugs would be worth more than gold. Save your left over prescriptions, and birth control pills in a safe spot from heat, humidity and children. Incase you need to trade etc... if there no longer are hospitals and doctors etc.... that would be very sad.
I don't see extreme drama, but small damas snow balling.

I'd say...high ground. Mt Ararat? Maybe you can find Noah's ark and ride out the waves. If not then you're no worse off than the rest of us. Survival isn't all it's cut out to be. Life is a push and a shove away from the edge of the cliff. Sometimes you can't defend yourself.
