Canadian cogitations about politics, social issues, and science. Vituperation optional.
I’m not sure what it is with a British accent that makes a smack-down so much more viscerally satisfying, but whatever it is; it works. This video dismantles the tomfoolery surrounding the end of the world ballyhoo that was making the rounds in late 2012.

I love the crickets chirping after he says “Here’s the short course of data supporting the doomsday predictions.”
On the downside? I wonder why the hell so many people seem just thrillingly anticipatory about alleged world endings!

The funniest thing about the Mayan end-of-the-world BS is that it is almost always accompanied by a spiffy graphic of the *Aztec* Sun Stone.

I would guess is that they are having to deal with the same slice of challenging life that we all do and are tired of it; thus they want their 72 raisins and eternal bliss stat.

I rather hand them 72 reasons for their eternal (infernal?) blips.

Good eye. Pretty much covers societies indifference to what we in western civilization quietly describe as primitive civilizations. How would it be if others were describing the Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria as rowboats, or the garbage scows of discovery?

I like starting with holding up my hands and telling them that carbon atoms in my left are from one supernovae and the ones in my right are from different supernovae. It is dramatic, and it still blows my mind, even if most of the time the ‘true believers’ will casually dismiss it. :)

Likely that is why I tend to dismiss “true believers”…
