I just found this surfing the web. Its pretty insane. With all the talk of 2012 and all of the major disasters, wars, technological advancements, globalization how can we not start taking this stuff serious? Nuclear weapons, diseases, etc.

"Most experts in the know, however, agree that if the world-changing event does occur it will happen suddenly and within the next 6 months."

I'm ******* scared if this is true.

Something like that would wipe out the place pretty quickly . . .

What a way to go though, riding a planetary fart into oblivion. Wild.

Well, this imminent Doomsday means that I need to tap Scarlett Johansson in less than six months. Wish me luck.

I'm in Mobile, Alabama and...

I hope I have time to open up a beer before I'm instantly killed. I guess I'll have to drink fast.

Seriously... someone will always come up with a doomsday scenario.. y2k, 2012, etc. Hell the flagellents were walking around Europe beating the hell out of themselves as the year 1000 approached. Screaming "the sky is falling" always gets more attention than just stating the known facts.

Besides, the aliens will intervene and save us.

well, only if they feel we're deserving of being saved, so probably not. Keanu Reeves told me we're not.

So, does this mean that the New Orleans Saints will never get the chance to defend their SB Championship?


Personally, I think it's a bunch of horse hockey!

That article sounded quite plausible until it mentioned methane being in frozen crystalline form.

Methane freezes at -182.5 °C, 91 K, -297 °F.

IIRC, the physical state doesn't rely only on temperature, but also on pressure. The high pressure must have something to do with the methane's solid state.

Well, you're right about the pressure. I think it would have to be pretty astronomically high to make methane a solid at the sort of temperatures you'd find in that region, though. I'l see if I can find a phase diagram.

Methane, btw, isn't an element.
