The Mayan apocalypse: What it is (or probably isn't)

What it actually means: The Mayan Calander will end on the 21st of December 2012. No Mayan prophecy has ever actually predicted the end of the world, but this hasn't stopped people from forming their own conspiracies. Just time for a new calender, is all.

How it will happen: The top three suggestions are death by solar storm followed by starvation, the collapse of financial systems and disease, death by comet unseen, death by planetary alignment.

Should I be worried: Absolutely not. That said, given the increase in natural disasters over the years, it doesn't help to keep a small, sensible amount of supplies so that if your town floods you don't have to fight off panicked masses in the supermarket. And don't forget the beer and scotch whiskey or whatever you need. ;) ;D

Hi HDW38,

I just crossed all of Germany and I am still here. Oh, wait still 1 hours and 15 minutes to go in Central European Time. But if we have to believe the scriptures, there it says "Of that exact hour no one knows etc.", so there you go. Nothing there, no pole shift and having google search and avast av up and running, normal routines...

Gut Schuss!

Next on the agenda, the "2037 crisis".  Considering that's a quarter-century away, it's probably a good bet that by then everyone will be on 64-bit systems (or better -- 26 years is a few lifetimes in computer history) which will handle dates properly for the next several billion years.

Hi Polonus!

We're still alive, too. The descendents of the MAYA said: We're now in the 5th decade of their calendar!
At last, but not least: We have avast!, too. So no harm at all!

All the best for you (and everybody)!
