Well one thing is for sure, one day it will all end. It could end tomorrow, or in a few million years. But putting dates on it is just plain stupid. And the saddest thing about this whole 2012 hype is that when that time comes some people will take their life. Like the woman who committed suicide last year because she thought the LHC would kill us all when they turned it on. There's even a forum out there for people who WILL kill themselves before the 2012 date. I mean just picture that madness, a forum where the main topic is killing yourself and assisting you with it all because some cavemen high on toxic plants made a calender which ends in 2012. Wtf is this shithole coming to? Especially when you consider the fact that the ones who fuel the hype are the ones that get $ from it. Hollywood, book authors, webmasters, etc etc. Yet and still some are actually stupid enough to believe this 1st class bullshit and actively participate in fueling the hype, such as the 1st post did. It just goes to show how many dumb people are really out there.
