In my life, there have been many claims of apocalyptic prophecies. Whether it was 1984, 1999, Y2K, or even 1UnknownProphet's now THREE failed dates THIS YEAR...none have come to fruition.

So will the Mayan calendar based claims of December 21, 2012 be any different?

The article I reference is from Thursday, November 12, 2009 in USA Today, page 1D of their "Life" section.
