Oh no! It's Y2K all over again
 
I just can't believe people buy into this crap! I found this website because there was a friggin commercial for it on tv! Not just on some public broadcast channel, but comedy central of all places. The End is Near!!!! Opinions?

and a book. Saw the guy reading one of these books at a fast food restaurant. Title is quite appropriate.

My career could use another Y2K. How can I help to spread the rumors and innuendo?

Not to worry...the "sheeple" will do it for you. Same folks that post redundant internet rumors over & over again. Same people that fall for the photochopped pics of the shark eating the Navy SEAL hanging from the helicopter. Same folks that send money to Nigeria (and MonaVie salesmen) to the tune of $3.4b/yr.

There's an endless supply of panic.

I'm always a sucker for a good disaster movie. Good excuse to shut down the brain for a few hours.;)

Can I get it for auto and home? I don't want any of that "Universal Life" scam crap.

I just looked more into the website. You guys are right, it's fake.

Not taking any chances. I entered the lottery.....



Greetings,

As the Communications Director of the Institute for Human Continuity, I'd like to thank you for taking an active role in preparing yourself for 2012. Please note your ticket is only valid for one person. Therefore, we strongly suggest that you encourage your friends and family to register for lottery numbers at TheIHC.com.

The IHC has uncovered evidence indicating that the disasters of 2012 are both real and unavoidable. We believe with 94% certainty that exactly four years from today, cataclysmic events will devastate our planet and many who inhabit it. December 21, 2012 cannot be ignored.

Though the future is uncertain, there are several things we can and must do to prepare. You have already begun by entering the IHC lottery and visiting our website. In the coming weeks, I will be hosting an online discussion during which I will answer your questions and provide additional knowledge on how you can continue to prepare. You may submit your written questions to me via twitter and email. We will also be accepting video questions and will have more details for you in the coming weeks.

I look forward to receiving your questions and working together to ensure that the end is just the beginning.

Sincerely,

Dr. Sorėn Ulfert, PhD

2012 = end of the Mayan calendar. Solution - buy a new calendar.

If the Mayan culture was so advanced why are they all dead?
