The 2012 thing has been much mis-interpreted. The date refers to the end of the cyclical calendar. A new calendar was not made because the Maya knew that there would be no need to keep time after this point. I spoke at great length with an elderly Maya gentleman about this. He told me that it was not the end of time, but rather the beginning, and that we would no longer need our bodies, or to eat, or to breath and that we would become beings of pure energy. I argued that that would make us dead, but he insisted that we would still be alive in a different form. For what it's worth........
Had enough
Then just say that....but thanks
