		<description>As I understand it, Mihir, the Mayans believed there were great changes as each time cycle turned to a new one.  And there are several prophecies from other quarters which unsetttlingly dovetail with this one.

If I wasn&#039;t so aware of current environmental crises, I could dismiss it out of hand!

However, I&#039;m more concerned with the possibility that things could happen simply because people believe they will happen and so bring them about.  There are lots of changes on the cards in the coming years, including the proposed singularity.  I&#039;m interested in how they&#039;re all coming together.  The 2012 thing is just a hook.</description>

		<description>Hi Mark

       Do you think that something might happen but it wont be registered by us? Also from what I remember about the Mayan time cycle, it just says that the current cycle will be over and a new one will begin labelled 13.0.0.0.[or something similar]</description>

		<description>Hey Mark, I think this is damn cool, and I applaud you for it. If nothing happens 21/12/2012 then I s&#039;pose that&#039;ll be okay, but I&#039;ll be honest and say that I hope something happens - something needs to, before we bugger everything up!</description>
