It's 2060, not 2012...and its Sir Isaac Newton, not the Mayan calendar, for the End of All Things.
History Channel just told me so in an hour's worth of claptrap on how the political circumstances are shaping up to usher in the End Times (capital E, capital T). Complete with a telling of Zionist history with a nod to friendly nations and a heavy emphasis on dates calculated by Newton. Now the mythology can be firmly ensconced through the imprimateur of a....da ta da dah.....scientist. Science and religion converge so we simply must join hands and look skyward as part of a global suicide pact.
Otherwise, it is a cold and snowy day on the prairie, soon to become a bitterly cold and windy night. All's well for at least another 45 years.

However, with my luck, I expect the event won't happen until at least April 16th - after I've paid my income tax.
