2012 Another Y2K?
by 2012 Is another Y2K I will explain why.
People say that the Maya Calendar Ends on Dec. 21 2012. That is true. However it is just the end of a calendar and a beginning of a new astrological age. Astrological age: An astrological age is a time period in astrology which is believed by some to parallel major changes in the Earth’s inhabitant’s development, particularly relating to culture, society and politics. There are twelve astrological ages corresponding to the twelve zodiacal signs in astrology. At the completion of one cycle of twelve astrological ages, the cycle repeats itself. Astrological ages occur because of a phenomenon known as the precession of the equinoxes. One complete period of this precession is called a Great Year or Platonic Year of about 25,860 years.
Dec 21 Armageddon theory is just a hoax to make you buy survival books and take your money. People also say that great seers also foretold Dec 21. However Seers are not accurate because, there prophecies open to interpretation. What Nostradamus says in his writings is how you interpret his writings. Also the prophecies are worded vaguely.
Supporters of Dec 21 Armageddon theory say that lots of famous people support it and that there is historical evidence. There is little historical evidence. If some sort of thing happened every like 25,860 years then would there be extinctions every 25,860 years? Yes or no?
Beleive what you want to beleive.

Well, there have been mass extinctions in the past, -about 5 cyclical incidents but these were separated by far greater time spans than 25.8K years.
Y2K turned out to be a big bust, although the NSA reported a few years after the fact that at 12:01 New Year’s Day, their national defense ‘went down’ for several hours… leaving the State vulnerable to attack. I know a few hosts and servers whom chronometers read “Jan. 1, 19999″ and a few variations thereof. The big concern were satellites in orbit that used computer languages like FORTRAN and COBOL that would ‘lock up’ on Jan. 1, 2000 because it would read as “19999″ and the four digits “9999″ is a ’sysRqs’ (”system request”), -the program would ’shut down’ and wait for human input to rectify an unsolvable equation. These satellites controlled things power grids on Earth, the potential would be that at 12:01 Jan 1rst, street lights all over America would cease to function, and hydro-electric power would fail to switch properly, causing some very cold home in the morning of the New Year. so the story goes, programmers were “…waking up in the middle of the night in terror” thinking about the ramifications. Many of these were actually stocking away foodstuffs, expecting the worst.
Anyway, I am less impressed with the hype over 2012 than Y2K.
