I'd be loathe to make that kind of leap, even though I do believe in some kind of event occurring in that year (and not just my enslavement), we are entering a period of heightened solar activity, that perhaps could account for some of the recent geographical and meteorological activity.

We just realised we have a friend in Dare County, but it looks like that was spared, she's probably without power though which is why we haven't seen her online yet.

My prediction is that when the year 2012 passes without any doomsday events (other than possible man-made atrocities), the doomsday believers will find something else to cite as the coming event.

It'll be 2013 because of the Gregorian calender, then there'll be 2020, and so on and so forth.
I do ponder though, and it is a gruesome thought and I apologise and will remove this if deemed inappropriate...but I wonder what the suicide rate will do next year...cults and all that...
