COMING SOON TO A GLOBAL CATASTROPHE NEAR YOU - 2012 - THE DAY THE MAYANS' SAID "TOLD YOU SO" BUT WHO REALLY CARES?

With all the Swine News around, I thought something far cheerier was in order. And then, listening to science man Michio Kaku talking about the leaks in the earth's magnetosphere and the impending period of higher than normal solar mass coronal ejections expected as El Sol awakens from a dormancy period, and how the Mayans foretold the end of the world (when their calendar ran out, no less,) and I thought to myself... Hmmmmm, it sounds like the making of a wonderful Wednesday posting.

So all this happens around 2012, when the Mayans, who by the way are EXTINCT - great calendar system they had; could not foretell their own demise, claim that it is the end of the end.


And of course, no potential apocalypse would be worth a damn without a Hollywood disaster movie to add fuel to the mental embers of those brain dead enough to not want to fact check anything on their own.

Don't get me wrong; the end of the world is cool, especially in this film where you see monks high up in the Himalayas as flood waters start seeping over and into the valleys until it washes them all out. That was almost as good as the scene of the ocean coming into New York in The Day After Tomorrow, or the gigantic mega-tsunami washing over the New York skyscrapers in Deep Impact.





I'm not happy about the end of the world. I have way too much on my to-do list. Somewhere between now and eternity I need a vacation - I work way too hard. However, if the end is coming there is one question I really want answered: If every person on the planet flushed their toilet at the same time, would we generate a flood?

So if the sun decides to give a giant electromagnetic plasma spit-up in our direction and some of the plasma goop comes through the leaky holes in our magnetosphere and screws up the electrical grids causing us to become a throw-back society with no food, electricity, no Blackberry or Internet, not to mention a city of millions with no food - did I say no food - I think that would qualify for the end of the world unless cannibalism caught on really fast and some people opened special restaurants like Chez Sapien. It would be open season on the overweight, for sure.

Now in case you think I am making this up, click on the links below and read it for yourself. And then remember, the Swine Flu is just a super powered version of the regular flu with a lot of media and pharmaceutical backing. Go wash your hands!

Happy Wednesday!
