868301 2010-03-18 20:25:00 Somehow i feel the apocalyptic 2012

What apocalyptic?
This drivel about the Mayans.
All the Mayans had was a calendar marked in certain cycles which if you still want to use it's count has Dec. 21, 2012, when the Maya's "Long Count" calendar marks the end of a 5,126-year era.

And?

868305 2010-03-18 21:17:00 Especially the 91. The volatile bits are fractious and leave home early. Not a good fuel for engines that NEED a minimum of 91 octane; fresher is better. R2x1 (4628)
868306 2010-03-18 21:26:00 After bit of research and reading various sources of information it appears the collapse of US dollar is not too far fetched after all.


Neither China or the US will allow this to happen. The US obviously wont want it as it will result in a drop in their quality of life; no more cheaply imported goods. China wont want it as it will result in a drop in value of their US Treasury securities; China holds almost US$900B of US debt.
