I agree. I have always thought though, that since the mayan calendar is  
based also on the solstices, and the long calendar ends on a winter solstice 
day  that it is more likely just the point they stopped writing at. They had 
to stop  somewhere and the end of a cycle is the logical spot. Now if it 
stopped on  November 2nd, it would be far more alarming.

Ah geez,  here we go again.  The Mayan calendar that everyone seems 
obsessed  
with is the Long Calendar.  The Mayans had *several* calendars.   NO ONE 
knows what they mean, exactly.  And quite a few were  destroyed.  After 
all, 
we couldn't have those dirty savages knowing  more about things than the 
superior white race.

The Long Calendar  gives details on a specific period of time.  There is 
also 
the  Tzolkin (a 260 day calendar based on periods of human gestation).  the 
 
Haab and Venus Calendars.  The Long County calendar (360 day  year).

You add up the Tuns (the 360-day year, 18 days, 20  months).  20 Tuns to a 
Kaun, 20 Katuns to a Baktan, 13 Baktuns to a  "great cycle."  (5200 Tuns, 
approx. 5125 years)  You get the  Long Count Calendar which everyone 
obsesses 
over.

Mayan calendars  were specific to cycles.  Moon cycles, human cycles, Venus 
cycles,  etc.  The end of the Long Calendar is the end of a cycle.  It 
isn't  
a doomsday calendar.

BTW, it has nothing to do with astroids.   It has to do with planets, 
alignment and sunspots and sunspot  activity.  More likely to be the 
beginning of a magnetic pole  flip.

The press corp is fact-adverse but very fable  friendly.
