Meteor Carving, Circa 3000BC
Many independent researchers believe that something must of occurred in 3114BC to trigger the start of the Mayan Long Count calendar – and therefore any information about events from 5,000 years ago catch my eye – like …
Dreams About 2012
As a child I had a few recurring dreams. One of them could’ve been a nightmare but wasn’t.
I was standing in the front yard of my home in cookie-cutter suburb. My parents and siblings were …
Tornado vs Basement
Those who study survivalism will come across many opinions, a few anecdotes, and virtually no facts. 2012ers therefore have no certainty of what will occur, and no certainty on how to survive it. So it …
Easter Island DNA Shows Interesting Mix
If you look at the DNA of the natives of Easter Island, and exclude whose ancestors interbred with Europeans (who arrived in 1722), then you’ll find most of the genes point to a colonization from Asia. But …
Two Earthquakes in USA Today
Most notably there was an earthquake centered northwest of Richmond, Virginia today, with a magnitude of 5.8. At this stage damage and injuries do not appear to be widespread, but a nuclear power plant at …
When Fiction Becomes Reality
After 9/11 it was freaky to see that the tragedy had been predicted in popular culture, for example the debut episode of The Lone Gunmen. The most under-appreciated disaster scenario facing the USA and the …
FBI Monitoring Survivalists
I’ve been pretty confident that government and law enforcement agencies are not spying on me. After all, they are so busy with terrorists, why would they bother looking at doomsday theorists? Sure, if I was running …
Rick Perry: 2012 False Messiah?
For multiple reasons I have been looking for a very religious politician to enter the 2012 US presidential race (I asked at the forum back in March). The election occurs just one month prior to the end …
In Brief: Elenin, NASA and more
2012 Forum has been written about at Vice Magazine, where they condescendingly describe the five types of folk who visit there. By the way, that’s not my picture:

NASA has decided to make a page that …
Important (?) Dates Leading Up To Dec 2012
Obviously Dec 21, 2012 is the date we all have in mind. Even so, amongst the various researchers of 2012 and end times, these dates are also worth noting:
Aug 22 2011 (+/- 3 days) – …
Another Day, Another Cable TV SHTF Preppers Show
A few weeks ago I mentioned Doomsday Preppers, which aired on Nat Geo, and now we have Livin’ for the Apocalypse on TLC. It features Dennis McClung – once more waving the flag for 2012ers …
Rennes-Le-Chateau, Bugarach and 2012
I’ve been reporting over at 2012 News about Bugarach (France), where many 2012ers and UFO fans are allegedly gathering. So many in fact that the mayor of the small village has complained, and a government …
GPS Disasters – More Than Just Navigation
As our world becomes more and more reliant on technology, so serious system collapses become more likely. I’ve been reading all about GPS jammers at New Scientist (the article is online at Gizmodo), and I …
Today Kentucky Stands Out
My two jobs collided today, in Kentucky.
In my day job, one of the things I do is buy/sell domain names. I noticed some community websites from Bowling Green, KY for sale, going really cheap. The …
Peak Novelty – Some Indicators
The novelty theory of the late Terrence McKenna is a mainstay of 2012 discussions. McKenna allegedly arrived at a Nov 2012 date prior to learning of the Long Count calendar. He proposed a singularity of …
David Wilcock: The Source Field Investigations
It’s quite common for 2012ish researchers to present information from disparate directions, without being convincing as to why each element connects to the other. David Wilcock is a great example. His video that preludes his …
DNA Comes From Outer Space
I’m a fan of panspermia, particularly the idea the mushroom spores traveled to Earth and gave humans a little extra something. The concept was given a real boost this week with news that components of …
Coming Soon: Take Shelter
Take Shelter is a new independent movie that was screened at Sundance, Cannes (where it won two prizes) and just recently the Melbourne International Film Festival, where I caught it. This is quite possibly the …
Ancient Tunnel Network
I need to buy the book, for this report from the Daily Mail makes it hard to assess whether there truly was a network (from Scotland to Turkey), or if people in various places just …
A little poison helps, a lot harms – “hormesis”
You may have come across hormesis previously:
charcoal water is often used when people have overdosed on their medications, but too many charred steaks increases your cancer risk
many ancient sites (i.e. stone circles) have people who …
