Longterm project. Goes back to high school, I guess, in the 60s.
Thanks.
Holy carrot!
Gotta read that, maybe you should post a thread about that work in Data Dump or so?
This was my original post:

I'm assuming that by the time December 2012 rolls around shit is going to be completely unrecognizable. The idea that some major catastrophic event is going to happen on that particular day seems pretty bogus to me. What is a lot more likely is increasing weirdness until people are prevented from functioning normally for some reason or another.
I have been tracking (historically, that is) what appears to be a short-term comet--at least it looked like one to the ancients, though its head was "brighter than the sun"--that regularly (every fifth or sixth revolution) intersected the earth, for several years now: http://neros.lordbalto.com/ChapterEight.htm. And unless the Tunguska event of 1908 was all of it, the Mayans appear to have been off slightly in their calculations, the next close approach being 2013, not 2012. It should be noted that the effects of this object have been diminishing over time, whether through loss of mass, or weakening of the magnetic field, or running down of its power supply. The last encounter that shows up in the tree-ring record was AD 536, though there were extensive earthquakes, from Egypt to Mesopotamia, in AD 748. 1908 was therefore rather exceptional. But then, a direct hit by even a greatly reduced object, could have been catastrophic. Four hours later and it would have taken out St. Petersburg. So the question is, is there anything left of it in orbit?
Holy cow, LB, did you write Alignment of Hebrew, Egyptian, and Assyrian Chronologies?!
I've been looking through it for a while now, and it's an incredibly captivating work—and very interesting ideas, which seem to explain a great many things.
And I'm dead serious about that.
