Icon4 Doomsday Predictions 2012?

Is 2012 really the year of the Apocalypse? The Mayan ancient calendar predict the world will end on December 21, 2012?

If the apocalypse happens and time comes to a standstill my Sub will suddenly become stunningly accurate.

Did the Mayas write about this?

Perhaps it's a sign the apocalypse is near...

My posts here have been genuine, well-thought out in content. I've done nothing to invoke suspicion, other than calling out some guy today.

Any moderator here will tell you that I post from 3 ip addresses out of the Tampabay area, which constitute my home, work, and clearwireless device. They will also tell you that they've never seen said ip addresses before. Ask yourselves: would a banned person go through the trouble of coming up with 3 brand new ip addresses for the purpose of reinventing themself?

Now I might be mistaken but I think Dan quoted your post to continue it. In fact, when I read it I had the thought he was talking about the OP.

Unless I'm wrong? Dan, what did you mean? I'm all mixed up now!

Please don't take us too seriously.

Except for Jocke and Paul, that is. You have to watch out for those two.

No problem. Someone told me in a PM that they suspected that I was a banned member coming back under a different alias. That's why I went all out with that long-winded explanation. Actually, several mentioned Jan Davis.
