I looked up Ice: The Ultimate Disaster on amazon and found that the book actually came out in 1971 and was re-issued numerous times, including 1997. Obviously no interest in re-issuing it post 5/2000.

some people today believe a Maya calendar pinpoints 2012 as the end of the world as we know it
There is not much doubt in my mind that we are in the throes of the end of the world as we know it. Most of us already don't recognize what this country has become today.
With the most evil POTUS ever elected by this country, and with Iran developing nukes, and jihad continuing against an emasculated PC Western civilization, and Israel possibly moving to the edge of danger due to external events, there are plenty of signs that things are going to get much worse before they will get better.
The 2012 elections fall within a few weeks of 12/21/12 and that will be a MOST INTERESTING time, assuming we get to it. There is plenty of talk, including on this site, of the possibility of an American CW II.
Yes, it does appear that things MAY be coming to a head, and by coincidence or not, close to 2012.

Is this a painting by some sick and twisted, disease ridden, child molesting, abominable sodomite?

So are you trying to imply that Sodom and Gomorrah never happened?

“A closed mouth gathers no feet.” Lol. You and your tag line don’t jive. On eschatological subjects you know nothing about, better to keep your mouth shut.

I’m not expecting the “end of the world” any time soon. But! I will prophecy baaad stuff comin’ down soon!
The commies (along with the muzzies) are in control and we are powerless to stop them.
The W in the market is coming soon, the dollar will disappear into some “Amero” or whatever.
Even if there is no natural disaster or big terrorist attack in the next few months the economy is gone!
Those Y2K supplies will come in handy!
(Oh, BTW I don’t recall that Pat Robertson actually set a date. Although there have been some lately expecting an atomic attack on Oct 10, no wait Oct 13, no wait Oct 25, no wait sometime in October, no wait just soon, very soon ;-)

There’s a great story about the first A-bomb, the one that was tested at Alomogordo in July, 1945.
The night before the test, a technician was making the final electrical connections inside the bomb casing. A particular cable ran from one end of the casing to the other, and he had to connect it to an assembly at either end. When he went to do so, he discovered, to his horror, that the cable had been put in backwards, so that the one end was female-to-female, and the other end was male-to-male.
Extracting the cable and reversing it would take many hours of disassembly and reassembly of the bomb casing, jeopardizing the test schedule.
He did what he had to, without asking anyone (because they would have had to say, not on your life!). He dragged an extension cord from outside into the bomb assembly room and warmed up a soldering iron.
(The room was air conditioned, humidity controlled, and purposely denied electrical outlets, all for fear of accidental detonation.)
He unsoldered the connectors from either end of the cable, resoldered them on the opposite ends, and completed the assembly of the bomb.
He knew that if he slipped and somehow set off the several tons of high explosive, he wouldn’t feel a thing.

It has a touch of Hieronymus Bosch. (Not him, though.)

Yes but Hieronymus Bosch seemed to like women. In my opinion the “artist” that did what is posted below seems to have forgotten that women exist. At least from that one painting.

Maybe it's a triptych, and we're only seeing a third of it. The other parts may depict the other two sexes.
