The X-Files, 2012 and 11:11

A new article by Philip Coppins covers modern day madness (my opinion) of obsessing over the numbers of 11 and 23. Of interest to us is how they connect to the year 2012:

The question is whether there is an “11 phenomenon”, or whether perhaps there is even an 11:11 or 11:22 phenomenon, seeing that the two numbers are obviously related. It was 11:22 that was a favourite time for the producers of “The X Files”, many of the clocks shown in the series showing this time.

...There is also the total solar eclipse of August 11, 1999, which occurred at 11.11 AM (GMT).

...What to make of the fact that the winter solstice in 2012 will occur at 11:11 universal time? It is of course this event that is so deeply linked with the Mayan calendar and its ending – or, if you are a fan of “The X Files”, the date of the alien invasion.
