according to the mayans, the world has only -4 years left
I read somewhere that apparently the calendar was interpreted incorrectly or something, resulting in the end of the calendar being roughly 4 years behind when it actually ended. Or something like that.
So, apparently the "2012 world ending" thing is actually scheduled for this year. Don't quote me on this, it's really vague and I barely remember reading it. I'll try to find that article.
