Comment: nope, i'm still not panicking

despite all your reassurances.

Most people who have researched the mayans properly aren't panicking either. Most people who haven't researched them at all aren't panicking either. A tiny minority who have researched a tiny bit and then leapt to conclusions are panicking perhaps.

More people are panicking that they won't be able to get the newest ipod or that black ops 2 will never be fixed or that they won't have enough chairs for christmas day or that there's going to be a huge festivus type fight on the day. You know, real mundane stuff.

Here's a hypothetical for you, say you knew the world was going to end on the 21st. What would you do? Would you spend the days posting articles or would you make the most of your remaining days, gather your family and friends and just savour the time?
