It won't be the end of the world, but it may be a year of turmoil across the world.

We have several wars running the Middle East, we can expect Cali to be hit by a massive quake in the next few years, N. Korea's been waving their stick around a bit too much, ect...

Lots of stuff going wrong.

I just hope I get a paid job.

According to NASA scientists: Link

Nothing bad will be happen to the Earth in 2012.

Our planet has been getting along just fine for more than 4 billion years, and credible scientists worldwide know of no threat associated with 2012.

Actually, If it is going to happen, not much can be done. So live life to the fullest every day.

With all the trouble brewing though, IF the world doesn't end in 2012, I think it will be a clearly changed one.

I only ask for better days than the past, not too much is it?

My hope for the future rests entirely upon responsible shepherding of our remaining helium supplies so they last until we find good sources elsewhere.

Essentially all modern technology either directly relies on helium, or its manufacturing and inputs rely on helium.

As well as our medical imaging technology.

And hopes for future production of energy largely rests on a rare helium isotope.

Helium is so cheap because the US government is selling it off at a very high rate. And the price being depressed means that alternatives are not actively being developed.

When the price begins to naturally rise again as the US's reserve is exhausted, it'll be too late.

Not to mention that the technology to find helium elsewhere itself requires helium.

My hope for the future is for auto-tune to die down within the music industry.

i'm hoping for the perfection of stem cell research and to live long enough to be able to take advantage of it.
