I posted of this on the JREF board, and it raised a question that I know someone here will be able to answer.

A few weeks ago I had a conversation with someone who believes that there are "indigo children", who are descended from aliens, have an extra strand of DNA, are immune to diseases such as AIDS, and are here to help us through the next phase of our evolution (or something). This person believed this because, and I quote, "I just know". This was linked somehow to the end of the Mayan calendar (12/21/12, although she said 12/23/12). I had heard of this before (although apparently the Mayan calendar does not end then). The next thing she said, though, was new to me. She said this date (12/23/12), coincides with a planetary alignment. I forget what the consequences of this were supposed to be. Or perhaps I just couldn't be bothered to ask.

My question is - does anyone know if there will be a planetary alignment on that date?

And I have a prediction. All these new age nutjobs - the Gregg Braden pole-shift group, the Indigo children, Planet X - all of them, will concentrate on 12/21/12 as being the day something big is going to happen, and the craziness has only just started. If you thought Planet X was nuts, just wait for 12/21/12. And remember - we've got nine years of it coming.
