And who knows what kind of calendar the dinosaurs were using?

It actually took millions of years for the dinosaurs to go extinct. Not dinos one day and no dinos the next. They also became extinct in different parts of the world at different times. 'Course the continents and oceans were distributed differently over the Earth's surface then, too.

I have always found the extinction of the Earth's mammalian megafauna more interesting and it is in the geologically recent past. Probably we could learn a lot more about possible sweeping extinction scenarios from studying that than we could from studying the dino extinction so many hundreds of millions of years ago.

Of course, we also might be able to learn a lot about the current alarming extinction of amphibian species across the globe and apply it to ourselves, also. We are probably slowly poisoning the Earth, and ourselves, to death.

We will probably do ourselves in long before any natural cataclysm has the chance to do it for us.

And we only use one year calendars.

how long it took does,nt matter to them . LOL they gone LOLOL

I think that it just means change not the end of the world. I am working on getting onto a farm so myself and my family can be more self sufficient why because with the way things are going right now, I am not sure what is going to happen to society that is what worries me more then the end of the world. I worry about what our government is doing is what worries me not some calendar made 1000's of years ago.

Hype. But...just for kicks and giggles we are having a "End of the World" party that night, and the next night we are having a "Yay, the world didn't end!" party. We love parties around here, any excuse for a good pig pickin' is good enough for us.

In reality anything however improbable may be possible. Death and sadly enough taxes are guaranteed.

Check this out! I am most concerned about the EMPs...... all of us trying to be self-sufficient and "off the grid" now can prepare us. The solar storm this week is well documented, and more to come according to NASA, US Airforce, NOAA.

If anything comes- it can't hurt to be prepared, but I'm not going to be an extremist!

Scarry stuff though.

I dont think zombies will engulf us. If so, my chickens will protect me, right?

This was my only concern, but I read recently that the sun was actually quiescent! The upsurge was already over?? Too many conflicting stories!
