According to His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, we only have 96 months left to save the planet.  I'm impressed.  96 months.  Not 95.  Not 97.  July 2017.  Put it in your diary.  Usually the warm-mongers stick to the same old drone that we only have ten years left to save the planet.  Nice round number.  Al Gore said we only have ten years left three-and-a-half years ago, which makes him technically more of a pessimist than the Prince of Wales.  Al's betting Armageddon kicks in January 2016 -- unless he's just peddling glib generalities. 

Hmmmmm.... I wonder.... would ol' Al do that?

You bet your "sweet bippies"  That a maybe a tad more.

Uh...Prince Chuck talks to trees...And Al-Baby can't seem to do anything constructive to help anyone other than himself...I wouldn't trust either of these individuals to give me a prediction on what mankind or nature will be doing in the future.  I would put more trust in the Mayan calendar than them! lol

I've always been interested in the whole "end of the world" deal.  The most curious thing about it is that across so many ancient cultures, they all pretty much say the same thing is going to happen at about the same time.  My brother is a geologist and he always talks about the event being either a shift of magnetic north or a switch of the poles, something along those lines.  It makes you realize that all these silly political arguments we have don't really matter in the end.  But they sure are fun.

I agree Anmar, in the end home and family are what is important.

When talking about the end of the world we should mention Solar flares, and meteors.

There is a book sitting in my bookcase gathering dust titled, "The Mystery of 2012" by a slew of many prominent thinkers and Ph.D's of the day.  I picked it up at a garage sale for a buck.  Maybe I'll read it... maybe I won't.  I'll keep it.  I can probably sell it to Slappy, the middle of 2012, for five bucks.
