I have a more morbid vision of the ensuing doom! Rising costs of everything, shortages of food, fuel, money.....rising unemployment and more and more foreclosures.......I see us turning on each other at some point.

yeah me too. once the system stops working, I envision gangs of thugs (the rest will be killed or starve) killing, raping, and pillaging for food and fuel to stay alive. Got thousands of rounds of ammo saved for my AK-47, .45, and 12 guage. A thompson center B/P and a compound bow for when all the high powered ammo runs out.

Europe was wasted in the middle ages, plagues wiped out millions, war has been raging since history began, dictators massacring millions.
The US civilians in WWII rationed gas, rubber, metal, meat.
Gas is $3.50 a gallon and we're all about to call it quits.
We're humans, the top of the food chain, we got through ice ages,floods, plagues, famines, wars, disease..........something tells me will get through this too.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope. ~John Buchan

I am sure people in 1930-45 said holy crap how will we ever survive. A great depression followed by war on a scale hopefully we will never know but somehow the nation got through it. What I would like to see from our political leaders is a plan of action that will result in change things even if it is bitter going down. We were able to get a man on the moon in less than ten years after making it a national goal. Why can't we do the same for algae or hemp based biofuel. How about a tax structure that rewards people who save. For every 500 dollars average increase in your designated savings account over the course of a year you get 50 off your taxes. A higher % income tax rate for those people making over 5 million. A higher inheritance tax for amounts over 10 million. Elimination of hard and soft pork projects. There is a lot of stuff we could do if we had the stomach and backbone for it.

Extremely accurate calender in every sense though.Tides,sunset/rises,and the movement of heavenly objects like planets and yes comets and large asteroids were so accurately predicted you can use it to this day and be completely accurate.The cycles of some of these objects in our solar system bring them very close to Earth and its the belief of some that the Mayan calender has predicted that the Earth and one of these objects will occupy the same space on Dec.21,2012.
Like you I don't buy it though.No proof just theory.
The Flying Spaghetti Monster is the real deal.
