Was this brought it because of the Mayan calendar? The Mayans had the best calendar to date. Right now the calendar they made years and years ago is off by only a few seconds. People believe that since the Mayans stopped their calendar in december 21, 2012 it means that the world is going to end. I guess it could happen. That would suck a lot for me since December 21st is my birthday. >.>;
Either way.. We're not sure if the mayans just didnt finish the calendar. After all, that civilization just dissapeared. No one knows what happened to them. Although I think that the chinese calendar also ends in that same date. I'm not entirely sure of the chinese calendar though.
Its up to you to believe that stuff. I think its a neat story and that we will all have to wait to find out what happens in a few years.
