Sounds like the show was made between late 2001 and 2002. It can really tell us a lot about how these people think, distorting everything how they see fit. I didn't realize that Randi goes into his research so in depth. He read all those books? How can he stand it?
But we can see from this show, that even 10 years ago people were thinking "the end is near" and tried to yell it as loud as they could anywhere they could. Nobody listens to them normally, but they were able to find a date to latch onto this time. Rational people always stay quiet, and doomsayers always have to state their loony ideas. So it seems that on the internet there are a lot more doomsayers than not, which isn't true. I don't think anyone would take notice if the ancient Maya weren't involved, since much of their stuff is damaged and there is a lot of room for speculation. If there is ANY room for speculation, there is always going to be a conspiracy theory.
