Frankly I’m not even sure they predicted an end of anything more than one long count cycle of their calendar like we mark the end of a century or millennium.

Right, that has always been my thought, or as I tell people who bring this up, they had to end the calendar at SOME point, if not to give the stone-carver a break.

Actually I think its kind of sad that crap like this overshadows the Mayan ability to calculate a 53,000 year calendar.
