Or, more specifically, I hope those who interpret the Mayans as saying the world will end in 2012 are wrong. I'm really looking forward to reading the declassified Kennedy files in 2017.
Here's a situation where having an editor would have been helpful. An editor would have said: "Don't post this stuff about Mayan end-of-the-world scenarios. You think it's funny, but people will take you seriously, and then it just makes you look like a nutjob. You're totally screwin' your own signal-to-noise ratio."

I'm about as worried about the Mayan calender as I am about the Book of Revelation or the return of the 12th Imam... In other words: not very. The world has been ending for thousands of years, and I predict that people will be fretting about it for millenia to come.
Come to think about it I'm not very interested in the Kennedy files either.
Time travel, evolution, artificial intelligence and space migration, however, I look forward to with great interest.
I'm really hoping for an end to time. After all, it is only a calendar ending. Time has been a sticky bastard for far too long. Sub-atomic particles don't bother with it, why do we have to? The end of the Earth will happen and even if we develop the means to eternal life so I can see it, I'd probably pass and go do something more interesting. Like inter-galactic strip clubbing!
Hey baby, nice elongated modular pseudopods.
That's what I'm talkin' about.
The cynic in me thinks the Mayan calendar is more likely to end than the Kennedy papers are to be declassified.
Sorry, but it's hard to take that face as cynical. Puddin' pops.
