The End is Nigh!

2009-11-17 23:52:20.982052+01 by petronius 1 comments

Just got back from seeing the cheerfully destructive 2012, which is big, dumb and a lot of fun. The premise is that a solar cycle is producing so many neutrinos that it is heating up the Earth's core with unpleasent effects. Then I wondered about how the Mayans knew about neutrinos. But one of my favorite sites, Lilek's Bleat has the real skinny on how 2012 came to represent the end of history.

"big, dumb and a lot of fun" - Sounds like my kind of movie (sometimes) - Thanks.
