Yup, it must be for real, after all someone has gone to a lot of time and expense to put together this really slick (and I might add somehwhat formidable) ad for what can only be PX (it's implied in the film), and yes, it is a conspiracy topic because it's all about how how *they* are hiding it from us.... Sigh, will it never end??? "The Shift Is Coming":

There will always be conspiracy theorists and hoax believers as long as there are people left who wish to blame their insecurities, incomprehensions, failings, and frustrations on something other than themselves and the ordinary whims of fate to which we are all subject, and who therefore will always be in need of a scapegoat to relieve them of their personal responsibilities, no matter how irrational that particular animal might be.

Good point, Maksutov. I think I am more amazed at the "professional" looking presentation rather then the content itself. Somenone put in a lot of effort there. ( Beats Nancy's cheesy old website!) Anyway, I just *knew* that PX had nowhere to go but to 2012!

It looked like an advert for a Micheal Bay movie!

I wonder what excuse will be used when nothing happens in 2012? And then what new date will be picked for PX's next arrival?

I happen to not be a subscriber to this planetoid crashing into earth. Nor comet or asteroid for that matter. It just doesn't seem very likely from the current orbital paths (despite the fact that various planetoids in the solar system are still omitted from most interactive orbital trackers these days), its more likely that gravitational alignment of planets in that year will cause a magnetic shift in the ears EM field... lol

--While im not a subscriber to that theory either (and the planets are not in an exact line as documented it should be), it IS interesting to note that the planetary positions DO line up with the Mayan drawing of the planetary positions when they made the prediction...

What have they to do with Planet X? At least they exist.

BTW I am pretty sure I know how the more intricate ones are made

Ahem..Why would anyone be caught dead (pun intended) wearing "end of the world" clothes in 2012? ;-) OR, if you really believe it will end, why waste your money??? But, anyway, the whole thing is ludicrous and planet X and 2012 is a perfect marriage for the doomsayers. (But WE saw it coming, didn't we?).

I hate this 2012 garbage, but if it gets one kid interested in the Maya who otherwise wouldn't be, it will be worth it.

Welcome to the forum James.

I just hope my ipod will still work after the EM field of my ears is shifted.

Seriously though, there have been other planetary alignments. Remember Voyager 1 and 2? It was possible for those probes to visit all the outer planets because just such an alignment occurred. But the Earth's magnetic field was unaffected. There were no tidal waves, no earthquakes, no volcanoes.

This idea that planetary alignments can have any effect at all on earth seems to stem from some people's erroneous view that whenall planets are "lined up" they are somehow CLOSE TO earth.

I have seen some examples of how far the planets are apart with a beachball for the sun, a pea (or was it a large spec of dust?) for earth, an orange for Jupiter, etc... etc...

When you get people to stand at opposite ends of the room to show the orbits of Mercury and Venus, then earth is down the hall and out the door, Jupiter is down the street and Pluto at the far end of the next block (at least!) the sheer scale of the solar system starts to become apparent to them. When you show that the nearest star is across the other side of the continent (or from us in the UK it would be approximately in New York) it starts to show how BIG space is.

Then show how you can hardly show the moon's orbit on this scale, and that the moon's orbit VARIANCE causes maybe 1000 times the influence of the planets (anyone know??) then this helps to show how insignificant any influence from any other planetary body actually is. Of course the moon is influencing the tides (and earth itself) TWICE A DAY, and orbiting the earth every 28.25 (ish) days. The moons orbit being slightly eliptical means this influence varies by FAR MORE than any planetary effect AND MUCH MORE REGULARLY.

I think that's the gist of it. I'm sure I will be put right by someone if I have something wrong.

Hmmm... the "shift" or the "spit"? Very similar words, and much of this nonsense looks like spit.
