    mayan "end of the world"ers, you missed the boat.

    from an email i got :


    there have been about 514 leap years since julius caesar invented it in 45 B.C.

    without the extra day ever 4 years, today would be july 28, 2013.

    the mayan calendar did not account for leap year.

    so....technically, the world should have ended 7 months ago.

    Maybe the upheaval in the House prevented it!

    FWIW...the Mayan calender is more accurate than the Atomic clock.


    They were far more advanced than the the Cesarean or the Gregorian calanders.....by far

    So it basically did the same thing as the not so sophisticated leap year and the date is the date.... right?
