Mr Fallow Sir:
The end of the Mayan Calendar thing sure got a lot of mileage in the Western Media. The Mayans may not have been cleaver enough to invent time travel but at least they had the good sense to become extinct before the Spanish invaded. As for our Modern Media, they now admit that the Mayans had a lot on and just hadn’t got around to making a calendar past 2012, how cleaver is that, they didn’t need one!
So Media Barons, what was the point of announcing a apocalypse? Trying to see if the “War of the Worlds” trick still works in modern times?
Well to be fair, maybe it might just have made people stop and think that our Earth is our home and we should NEVER take it for granted and though it may not be perfect to some, we should never ever treat it like it is in any way disposable as that is Madness pure and simple. And might I add a little distressing for the children.
Signing off for 2012
