If you are reading this, then the world didn't end on December 21.
News Flash # 2:
The Mayan's Never "Predicted" the world would end on December 21, 2012.
The scenario is not entirely different from the old example of telling a short story to the first person in a line of people.
Each person then turns around and whispers it to the next person, who then turns, and so on. By the time the story reaches the last person in line, the original story is often wildly differnt than the original version.
I remember first hearing the story about the Mayan calendar a few years ago.
The original version went something like this:
The Mayan calendar will be recycling into a new period in 2012. Each period is called a "baktun."
Each baktun represents 144,000 days — or nearly 400 years. The 13th baktun of the Mayan calendar is slated to come to an end on the solstice marked on Dec. 21, 2012.
The years will simply click-over and start a new cycle. Similarly, if a car's odometer runs past its complement of numbers, you can still drive it.
Compare this story to today's madness, early school closings, families teaching their young children to wear gas masks, and many, many other outrageous stories.
Never underestimate the sheer zaniness of some segments of our population. And enjoy thr rest of your day.
