Another Supernova Threat

The standard spiel from orthodox science is that only supernovae within 100 light years of Earth could wipe us out. It's refreshing to see in an article (at Space.com) this admission:Astronomers have previously said that any supernova explosion within 100 light-years of Earth would likely be devastating, but beyond 100 light-years, it's not known for sure what the effects might be.

What if nothing happens in 2012?

This is a common question, and one that especially concerns 2012 prophets, 2012 fearmongers, and 2012 spiritual evolutionists - for they could all have egg on their face.First of all, there's a good chance something will happen, because most years somewhere in the world there is a major story. 2012 will still have legs, because proponents of the meme will say things like:that earthquake / volcano
