The Mayan calendar goes from 12.20.20.18.20 to 13.1.1.1.1 on
that date. Except as a reason to have a swell party to rival
y2k, it is nothing special. Except it happens rarely, the last
time was around AD 1600. All the more reason to have a party for
the Mayans; a people that deserve a celebration.

The calendar does not end. It even has provisions for the
date after 20.20.20.18.20, which will be 2.1.1.1.1.1. In some
3280 years time. Except for using base 20 and 18, it is not
much different from the normal astronomical day count.

I am much more worried about the consequences of running out of
ipv4 addresses, in about 319 days. 233.834.000 ipv4 addresses
left. Get yours before it is too late. Or get a few billion of
ipv6 addresses, and start your upgrade.

No telling, but back when he got going, he was somewhere in the Rockies, but
I could agree with another respondent's concise estimation: $3, even though
that might be a bit overpriced. ;)

Well, yeah, but I was actually thinking of the well-known
quotation about "$3 bills".
