I would suspect they will think the same thing that happened in 2001. Oh well, we were wrong, didn't we look like fools... heh.

It's going to be the same thing. There were a few prophecies about 2000, combined with the irrational fear of the Y2K bug (A problem that was fixed long before 2000. No computer will crash because the dates wrong, you can test that by setting your PC's clock back yourself.)

Nothing happened back then, the world continued running, businesses were open, people were working and shopping, and everything was peachy, aside from the new years hangover.


Nothings going to happen in 2012. You're going to wake up January 1st 2013 with a bad hangover, and thank the odds you managed to get the day off.

"History shows that big sunspot cycles 'ramp up' faster than small ones," he says. "I expect to see the first sunspots of the next cycle appear in late 2006 or 2007—and Solar Max to be underway by 2010 or 2011."

But the new solar cycle is all ready over a year late
In fact some people are starting to worry about an Ice age.

Im not against the idea of "A" 2012 (aka earth shattering event) what i am against is the prediction of said event.

There have been countless predictions of the end of the world, and when that mystical time comes, said person just walks away really fast

some people have even made MUTLIPLE predictions, consecutively, and still have followers that believe in the predictions!!

Im not saying you're "stupid" if you believe in "the" 2012 conspiracy
i *am* saying that the 2012 conspiracy is stupid

the end of our lifetimes will happen, this is true, but nobody knows when.

Preperations? For the end of the world?

Im quitting my job.
