Reactions to world not ending (Dec 21 2012)?
I forgot all about it and today remembered that I didn't hear anything about the people who said the world was going to end on Dec 21st and their followers.
Are there any good compilations of statements or reactions by believers who got schooled in reality?
Tried to google it but didn't really get any interesting results.
@ "answers" so far: ??
To clarify: I never thought it would end, since that's primitive superstition. But there were a lot of people who openly stated their belief it would, and they also had lots of stupid, gullible followers.
I'm looking for videos or statements of those people, trying to make excuses for why, again, the world didn't care about their stupid beliefs and didn't end.
Believing that Dec 21st was "the beginning of the end" puts you in the same category of gullible idiots, so please refrain from "answering" this.

the Mexican tourist board made a fortune out of the gullible fools who went over there expecting 'something' to happen....

I think mostly because they knew it was all a hoax so that's why there wasn't much of a reaction to the world not ending. Only a little bit when it was 12-12-12 I was watching CNN and when the 12th hour and minute came and went, someone said, "Oh look we're still here" Much less the same little reaction when the 21st came and went, only mentioned on how many people were at the Mayan temples celebrating the day.

If the world is beginning to go to the end, end it's being a long time ago, not last year, it's start when human killing each others, so who is the last standing or the universe will be destroy, any way, when it happen you might not know it took place at all, so enjoy your life, and stop listen those stupid things.

...because the Mayan calendar simply
ended on the 21st December 2012.
'They', the Mayan, counted downwards,
and if they still existed, would start all
over again, counting downwards to
another fixed point in time.
