The Year 2012, supposedly Doomsday, is not far off now.

I remember George Orwell's book 1984, which society has even mostly become just that as Big Brother is watching you even in 1984. The was mostly due to the success of the Star Wars projects that was commissioned during the Ronald Regan administration.

Some of the technology leaked out, as years went by to show that certain Helicopters and Aircraft can pin point an person within a 20 to 50 mile range hear their conversations and even see exactly what you are doing.

I used to be amazed with, being able to publicly go to websites that show even some of the most sensitive areas guarded by our government. But, even now with the war, sensitive information is being leaked out constantly. Of course along with disinformation as well.

2012 maybe another fluke to the prelude of Y2K as many thought Y2K was the end, which to me was a bigger money making conspiracy than fact. As, I am from an intense IT and High technology background that even some experiences cannot be discussed, due to government involvement. If, we make through 2012. I can then talk to even my closest about what I was involved with. As, any sensitive project you are bound for so many years before they consider your involvement declassified.

The issue with Y2K is the so called Y2K bug that sent most of the population of this country into a frenzy of preparing for a doomsday situation. The threats and rumors that all computers that ran our utilities and financial responsibilities were going to crash due to the inability to go past Y2k. As, a IT guy I didn't believe a word of it. I have played with computers way before even it made it as a personal computer. Even the old key punch computers made it past Y2k as many outdated systems. The one and only report of a system that did not make it was a water utilities plant that failed for only 5 minutes during a test of the Y2k flip over. Which is how the word got out. I can say every business direct and indirect to computer technology made a buck. As the time counted down to extinction I had even my oldest synchronized to New Years which I anxiously awaited the count down. The rumor was that even if you manually flipped the the date of the machines this wouldn't be an accurate test, you have to upgrade no matter what. I never did. As, the time and date flipped to Y2K nothing happened as I laughed in knowing the biggest joke and scam had hit the nation. Of, course no big congressional hearing on why the whole mess was started or found people responsible for such a scam. Actually, nothing done just. People all over the nation was hood winked by this scam is all.

On TV and News there are now more often bringing up 2012 as the end of time for this planet.

This is a big mystery is to why the Mayan Calendar has stopped at 2012 also known as the Dresden Calendar. Some say, that the Mayan people believe this is where all things turn against man.

Some even say, that they just stopped because of no longer felt to keep writing the calendar past 2012.

I have even thought to myself, that maybe the time the calendar was being made for that year, the Spanish Conquistadors had either enslaved them or killed them. Mexico was made of Mayan, Inca, Aztec once the Spanish Conquistadors had entered Mexico that all changed. Spain's mission back then which I am sure most of you remember the Three G's Gospel, Glory and Gold.

Never the less, this is a big topic all over now. This one doesn't have to do with technology this time so I can stand either way on my point to what will happen. Of course, there are rumors of a meteor hitting earth at that time as well we have countries in the world that are pushing for Armageddon. Funny, I remember how growing up, I would never thought I would be alive for any of this as this pretty much is covered in the book of Revelations in the Holy Bible.

The only draw back of 2012 in my own opinion is that in the Holy Bible, no man know the hour as Jesus said, nor I, only my Father know the hour.

I do believe there will be a significant change in the world good or bad. As, this is a logical assumption. We all change as time passes so does the world.

What are your thoughts of 2012? If, I am not mistaken I believe the movie Terminator was based on Cyborgs from the time of 2012 then again I am not sure.

Something to ponder on and comment as well.
