Google Terrence Mckenna 2012
It's the year in which there's supposed to be a shift in reality or something or other.
Something to do with the end of the Mayan calendar I think.
In Archaeic Revival book Mckenna discusses it at length (acceleration of novelty in human history reaching its apex etc).
It's a barmy notion with some nuggets of wisdom scattered about (which sums up most of McKenna's musings really)

It is the end of the great cycle of the Mayan calendar. Time will stop and the Universe as we know it will end, dood.

I've read that this is the end of the Mayan Calender because December of 2012 is when the constellation Pleiades (I'm pretty sure) will dip below the horizon. And Pleiades was a central focus of the Mayan calender.

John Major Jenkins. One of the foremost experts on the Mayas and their calender.
I've actually had lunch with the guy a few times. He lives here in Denver and me and a few friends met him after a lecture he gave here. Cool guy. Put quiet and weird.

also alot of prophets have theorized an eventual end or something dramatic to shape the earth. probably a pole shift or a huge nuclear war, something along those lines. time will tell and possibly the bible. be weary, be very weary.

Wishful thinking. 2012 will be another shitty year like any other. This is hell and death is the only true escape.

I hope something happens, even if I die with it. Because if enough people die hopefully the good ones will survive or the survivors will snap out they're old ways and bring a productive, fair and humble society on this planet. If it ever comes down to that and I survive, I'll lead you all to peace, love, happiness and a more intelligent world for all to live :-)

Didn't Nostradamus predict something about 2012 too? The year a woman will be elected and a sign of the appocalypse, I don't believe in this sort of thing really, but that's what I've heard from several people. As a side note, Incubus has a song, A Certain Shade of Green dealing with the whole 2012 conspiracy and it's a really good song
