So is the gist of his presentation that 2012 is an Expiration Date for our small blue marble?

Anyone?

On some level everything is connected but running around finding a bunch of tenuous connections between your favorite obsessions of the moment in a vain attempt to impress people with your esoteric knowledge and adeptness is juvenille and bound to be wrong anyway.

Given your hypothesis about non human entities controlling certain things (something I don't actually believe, tho I would be prepared to accept that non human entities try to control things, through humans, cos they can't on their own), what do you think the deal is with 2012?

The serpent devouring its end theme throughout the ages, and represented in the cosmos was talked about for a whole segment, I think it was in the last parts of it. Very intriguing, this idea of a area of the milky way as the ouroboros, as a measuring of time...trippy But yeah, it was quite a bit to pack into an hour. Im curious if any of the info he mentions checks out?
But yeah the premise of the talk was pretty much that the earth is on some sort of clock, and roswell and mars may be significant

Thanks for the non-schizoid response. I've heard that theory before, but it doesn't feel quite rite. When I look at an ouroboros, I see something more subtle. Heat death, maybe.
Gnosticism
In Gnosticism, this serpent symbolized eternity and the soul of the world.
[edit] Christianity
Christianity adopted the ouroboros as a symbol of the limited confines of the material world (that there is an "outside" being implied by the demarcation of an inside), and the self-consuming transitory nature of a mere "worldly existence" of this world, following in the footsteps of the preacher in Ecclesiastes 3:9-14...
In alchemy, the ouroboros is a purifying sigil. Swiss psychologist Carl Jung saw the ourobouros as an archetype and the basic mandala of alchemy. Jung also defined the relationship of the ouroboros to alchemy:[4]
The alchemists, who in their own way knew more about the nature of the individuation process than we moderns do, expressed this paradox through the symbol of the uroboros, the snake that eats its own tail. ouroboros, has been said to have a meaning of infinity or wholeness. In the age-old image of the uroboros lies the thought of devouring oneself and turning oneself into a circulatory process, for it was clear to the more astute alchemists that the prima materia of the art was man himself. The uroboros is a dramatic symbol for the integration and assimilation of the opposite, i.e. of the shadow. This 'feed-back' process is at the same time a symbol of immortality, since it is said of the uroboros that he slays himself and brings himself to life, fertilises himself and gives birth to himself. He symbolises the One, who proceeds from the clash of opposites, and he therefore constitutes the secret of the prima materia which [...] unquestionably stems from man's unconscious.

Wanna know what I see in it? The unending circular logic of the intellect forever turning around and around in on itself.
