man, I never really liked you very much before, but asking you to have consideration for what you say and having that returned to me makes me just not care at all about what you have to say.

It's not a matter of PC - such gratuitous rudeness is simply uncalled for.

The Mayans designed a calendar for their own use, and explicitly extended it for a considerable period.  Had there been a need, they could have designed a way to extend it further as easily as anyone else; in fact just repeating it works as well as anything else.  Playing around with apocalypse predictions is a bit of harmless fun, but bad-mouthing the designers of a calendar which happens not to have an indefinite length (because they didn't need it) does nothing but diminish you.

Anyway, as expected, the world has failed to end as the result of an arbitrary pattern of numbers being reached, so there's really nothing more to talk about here.
