| #14 Of course the calendar doesn't end, like ours doesn't end on Dec 31st. The Mayan calendar (long count) has been there before but we're still around. But if you like to sell me your life insurance for 10% of its value, I'm game. |

| #2 The Mayans were off by a month and 15 days. |

| #1 I read that the Mayans didn't understand "Leap Year" so the time has passed months ago, NO PANIC HERE. |
