Peace, out (or War, out... btw, read to the sondtrack of: 30 Seconds to Mars- WAR as background music).
Also just posted Aug 2010- an "end of the world" concurrent w/ the Mayan calendar script titled: Vortex on Scribd dot com (enter "Vortex" into the search box). Give it a read if you wish & let me know what you think.
It's interesting seeing where we're at some 30 years hence, isn't it?
