If you been watching History channel you would see a lot of people think it will end in 2012, incl the Maya and Nostrodomus

NO! Not 2012! That's when I plan to retire and move to Hawaii!

Somebody tell Nostro to bump it back to like 2052 or so.

That way I'll get off scot-free and Ryan Seacrest will suffer the end of the world.

My thought is this guy's been out of the spotlight long enough that he's desperate for attention.

This guy has a blog where he discusses many of the predictions that Celente has gotten wrong over the past decade, so don't be so quick to invest in can and tent makers:

I was wary about 2012 for a while. The accuracy of the Mayan and Egyptian Astronomy worried me, as I think it's possible that those societies were indeed visited by extraterrestrials. When everyone in the world at that time thought the world was flat, how is it they plotted the movement of galaxies? Throw in the mysterious I Ching et al - but after watching the History Channel presentation, it all looks like those scripts are just ambiguous enough to be suited to whatever interpretation you care to derive.

The maya had a more accurate calender than we do

I know, that's what worried me at first. But I don't see that pointing to any apocalypse, especially after watching the HC program.

I definitely do think it is possible that an extraterrestrial visitation produced that calendar. I may be just missing some simple explanation, but in the flat earth society, that was a startling anomaly of astronomical understanding. I don't fear that either. If anything, I take it as a rare sign left for us to tell us we are not alone.
