man, if the mayans were so smart, why the hell did they disappear. their world ended hundreds of years ago, so they were really just off by a few centuries. this kind of stuff has been going around for hundreds of years. think about how people were reacting to haley's comet or (and yes people did, so dont deny it) the year 2000. the fact is that there is so much that could happen tomorrow out of nowhere that could end this world, i dont think we really have to worry about a prediction that was made by an extinct people. if you really want to freak yourself out, read Bill Bryson's book A Short History of Nearly Everything. you get a sense of how close we come to near desctruction all the time--the potential for the unannounced eruption of the super volcano at Yellowstone park, meteors that are constantly passing by within hairs of the earth that scientists dont notice till they pass (close in terms of the scale of the universe) even huge earthquakes.we're always on the brink of being wiped off this planet. but we gotta keep going anyway. maybe even play a little poker every once in a while.

The Mayans didn't know anything at all about the black hole at the center of the galaxy. That wasn't discovered until the 1950s. I think the Mayans just really, really didn't want to sit around carving those goddamn pain in the ass stone calendars every year, so they crammed as many years as they could onto the biggest rock they could find, and said, "There, now we won't have to do that shit again for 5,125 years. Then it will be somebody else's problem."
