Happy End Of The World

[cascaderailroad]

Newsflash: The next End Of The World according to the new "Mayan long count calendar" (is a 5,125 year calendar) will be in the year 7137.

The old calendar began August 11, 3114 B.C. and ended December 21, 2012

Sorry ... Your lifetime FCT will have expired by the year 7137

I predict the world will actually end in 2034, when the Trainz lifetime FCT is predicted to expire. (yes ... it does expire).

Only 22 more years to play with Trainz !

well it's 22/12/2012 08:30 hrs. I thought we had a start on tghe apocolypse this morning at about 03:00. There was a rumbling and shaking the windows rattled, living in an earthquake free area, I naturally assumed it was the apocalypse a tad late, but no it was only the dog passing wind. Gotta change the brand of dog food we're buying

Oh well.

I guess there is still the 10K bug to look forward to. Computer dates use 4 digits, so in the year 10000 all the computers will crash.

all the computers will crash.

Is there a windows update for this yet?
