I heard that the partical accelerator over in... Europe? I cant even remember where it is.... the one they feared would cause a black hole... actually did but we wont notice it until 2012 :s
Ive studied Mayan culture intensely throughout my schooling and they were spot on with a lot of things, but every culture has an 'end of the world'. Its the inability of humans to wrap their heads around the concept of infinity, or forever. The vastness of time and space is so hard for me to grasp. So things must come to an end for us eventually. But even if humans are removed (which will be a blessing on this earth!) life will continue, in some form or another.
