But I think we have at least a decade or more before that happens, so you still have some time to get rich.
fosil fuels will run out in the future they are finite resoucses. the big question is when will we hit the peak?? the peak could be the real threat to humanity, the trigger that sets off a chain of events that will lead to a global economic meltdown!! we are burnning thru 30 billion barrels of oil a year or like 2 cubic miles of oil a year. and thats just oil!! what about the 6 billion tons of coal thats gets burned, the trillions of cubic feet of natural gas that goes up in flames annually. add compounding growth to those numbers and only fools can think the stuff will last forever..

i'm not calling you a fool, only the people that think it will last forever.

as for 2012 being the peak is anybodys guess, we could allready be in the peak one thing for sure is the peak is coming.

i totally agree!!!!! the myan civilazation were obsessed with time and the heavens and probably were going to start a new calendar on december 21-- 2012... it would make plain sense to start a new calendar on a day when the sun lines up with the center of the galaxy every 26,000 years..

I don't know from where they have such predictions!
However, God is All-Knowing about the fore-future.

Even genies (or aliens) do not know what will happen in the future.

They said as in the Quran 72: 10
وَأَنَّا لَا نَدْرِي أَشَرٌّ أُرِيدَ بِمَن فِي الْأَرْضِ أَمْ أَرَادَ بِهِمْ رَبُّهُمْ رَشَدًا

The explanation:
('And We know not whether evil is intended for those [inhabitants] in the earth [if they believe not and keep on their disbelief and association]

or their Lord intends to guide them aright [so He sent them a messenger: Mohammed.]')

An Hour with Ghosts

with what is currently happening though, the US the once powerful country is struggling economically, the floods and earthquakes and volcanoes erupting, if you are superstitious, u might freak out. well i was not baffled by y2k, well actually our whole country wasn't because our country wasn't ran by computers then and even now unlike the US.

i certainly am not baffled by this 2012 scare by some reason too. intuition? i just dont care, actually.

Answer: a means to scare folks into religious adherence, and to make a few bucks on people's gullibility & ignorance.

I'll bet there will be numerous Special Mayan Winter Solstice parties, where the par-tey-ers will pretty much lose it! Whatever it is they want to lose that is....

Q: what is an appropriate Mayan ruler costume? And where does one get an innocent goat to sacrifice? I think an appropo "sacrifice" would be to force it to drink a Tequila shooter with me whilst I gaze lovingly into it's vertically slit "Satanic eyes"....
