Default Galactic Alignment in 2012 ?

Is there some sort of notable planetary or galactic alignment in the last week of 2012? I've heard doomsdayers mention it...

The winter solstice is near zero degrees galactic longitude.
Does it mean anything (EOTWAWKI)?
No!

but how long will that list be in 2013, assuming we don't all blink out of existence at the end of 2012?

Since the doomsayers have it down to the year, month, day, hour, and minute, the key to surviving TEOTWAWKI in 2012 is to make sure you're not in the time zone that first experiences those parameters. For instance, those poor suckers in New Zealand may get wiped out, but those of us in the US central time zone will OK, since the event will occur 19 hours before it would have gotten to us.

Easy as cake, piece of pie!

Default Can We Get a Sticky?

Ya know, maybe we need a sticky thread at the top of several of the forums along the lines of the Read this first, re posting "Electric Universe" ideas here thread. There are already about 5 dozen threads on 2012, and that's about 4 dozen too many.

You know, I don't think we can wait till 2012 for a Galactic Alignment. The Galaxy 500 has been pulling to the right for some time now, it just doesn't handle like it should. I think we should take the Galaxy to a mechanic sooner than that.

I've got a better idea. Lift up the title and slide a new car under it!
Pulling to the right is the least of its problems.

Not only does it get the same gas mileage as a Hummer, but it pollutes more than a hundred Hummers!

No, no. That's a Galaxie 500. It's from a different Universal joint.

Hi What. Welcome to BAUT. How are Who and I-Don't-Know?
I suspect the mad cults are already with us.
