The Four main Prophecies for 2012

This is the final word on the matter. I have spoken.

[grin]  The actual Tunguska event took place in 1908, not 11, 12 or 18.

 To recap:

1) No cosmic collision. No cataclysmic impact, neither by a large meteorite, comet, brown dwarf star, Planet X, Nibiru or other such nonsense.

2) No destructive disruption of communications by solar flares or coronal mass ejections. Minor disruptions and/or nuisances are of course possible, but the doomsday predictors are talking about a total collapse of world communications. That's a mirage. It ain't gonna happen.

3) No cataclysmic earthquakes. While a magnitude 8.5 or 9 earthquake would certainly be LOCALLY devastating, and it could even cause significant devastation along the rim of a whole ocean basin (remember the 2004 trsunami), it wouldn't even come CLOSE to qualifying as the cataclysmic event that the 2012 doomsayers are prophecying. Nothing less than a magnitude 10 earthquake will qualify. And that ain't gonna happen. I'm even happy to go out on a limb and say we won't see a magnitude 9.3 earthquake in 2012. Ain't I a gamblin boy?

4) This is the only prediction I consider to be even remotely at risk of getting wrong. Even so I'm happy enough that a collapse of the WORLD economy is SO unlikely that we can discount it as a REAL possibility. A major recession? Possibly. Total collapse? Nah.


There you have it. And don't try to waste my time arguing over this. I'm not going to entertain your silly little "arguments" nor am I going to waste my time indulging anybody's fetish with Bible codes, Hopi ramblings, Mayan calendars and other ancient so-called "wisdom".

These are my predictions, and I stand over them. And in a year and two weeks' time from today, 23 December 2011, we'll know that I had all four of them right. Until then, feel free to keep trying to spread fear and to prophecy doom and gloom to befall us in 2012. But in 2013 none of the cataclysmic predictions will have come to pass, and I WILL be here telling you all "I told you so". Prepare to watch me gloat in a most undignified manner, especially at those of you fools who spent their lives' savings trying to "prepare" for events that if they ever DID come to pass you would be as prepared for as a guy jumping off a sky scraper trying to make a parachute out of his handkerchief.

My recommendation: stop wasting your life worrying about crap that is never going to happen. Enjoy your life and make the most of it. And stop wasting time trying to prepare for some event with which you have become obsessed, because you can rest assured that whatever tragedies you WILL have to deal with in your life, you will not have seen them coming. And in the end, as Country Joe put it... Whoopee, we're all going to die. Life is for the living.
