Apparently it's actually March 21, 2013

Figures, the world would end three days before my birthday.

Holy crap I'm a soothsayer! I predicted months ago that the date of dec 21 would be found to be "off" and thus sometime in march 2013 would be the real end of the world.

I was taking the p... back then I still am. I am astonished that folks need to invent yet more reasons as to why Dec 21 didn't really not happen.

Dec 21 came and went. Nothing happened nothing ever will that is related Mayans or ancient calendars.

Prediction : march 21 2013 will come and go exactly as dec 21 2012 did.

Anyone who truly believes that the world will end on mar 21 2013 will know that all their possessions will be lost. So I will draw up a legal document that hands over all your possessions to me on March 22 2013. If you truly believe then sign the document.

The economy, North Korea, gun control? Talk about your boring threads that lead to nothing!

DOOM is what all these sites are about. If we wanted science or politics, we would all be over at the CNN and NASA sites.

Yes, there will NEVER be enough DOOM! If you are "doomed out" check your pulse...NOTHING beats DOOM!!!

Well, for a month there I thought ATS had died once all the 2012ers left. Looks like it's back to normal now lol.

How many more doomsday scenarios do I have to survive?

I've always wondered about the longer/sorter day/night thing in relation to time keeping. The vast majority of devices use a quartz crystal manufactured to oscillate at a given frequency. This frequency is not static and can be affected by external factors such as temperature, humidity, electro-magnetic and ionising radiation. Im no physicist but is it possible to introduce a sort of elecro-magnetic interference that would effectively change the resonant frequency of a quartz crystal? If so then it would be possible to manipulate the time keeping of any device that uses one, which no doubt number in the billions and are often used to "correct" non-quartz mechanical devices. Would explain how clock would "keep time" relative to the day/night cycle.

It never fails, it happens constantly on ATS. A "doomsday date" comes and goes and then all of a sudden it's found out to be wrong then a new date comes and goes. Sometimes a new date will pop up and again, it'll come and go. Other times, those who claimed these things eventually shut up. (Not referring to you here OP, you're just sharing something you found.)

quartz vibrates at a set rate.. It's shielded inside your compy you type on right now, much like the sensitive hard drive that doesn't get erased around all the electricity flowing around..

It's also not the only time keeping device.. There are also atomic clocks.. However if time itself as a dimension is shifting in relation to us, no time keeping device will notice.. It will still tell you that there are 24 hours per day..

As we accelerate into the Andromeda galaxy time will actually start slowing down..

I must have missed where DOOM was mentioned or even eluded to.
hmm.
I'm sure someone will be able to show me.

edit on 24-1-2013 by Screwed because: (no reason given)

This seems to imply MEGA-Doom:

During what was known as the Montauk projects of the late 60’s and early 70’s, scientists under the influence of the misguided ones, experimented with time travel technology and hit a time wall on that date. They could not travel beyond that day on earth in linear time, because earth no longer exists after that day in the lower realms of linear time.

Now this is probably just more 2012 nonsense carrying over, John Moore is still at it, now changing his dates to March 13th 2013, and "most certainly by summer 2013" as such it should be filed under 'More Doom Porn' and just be blasted off into the stratosphere.

After all there really is no such thing as Ascension to a higher plane of whatever, and while there may be bazillions of quantum multiverses (maybe there's one where I don't have to work, hmmm) there's no other plane where light love and happiness is all washing over humanity and making us all get along..

You bolded half the statement.. It's not Doom to grow up into a better life. Do you think that yesterday was doomed everytime you wake up.. Do you morn this loss continually, never looking at today? Well when the world exists in the future out of this time line (hypothetically) you will think it's doom, but I will call it life..

Strange billions oh wait I mean bazillions of not universes, but MULTIverses each containing, what bazillions of universes? AND You have SEEN ALL of them?? And they're all filled with limited negative people who see doom in change??

Whoa dude..

Actually I already live in that spot you think doesn't exist.. Everyone around me is all washed over in Love.. Making us all get along. It's called being a good person.

I understand how a quartz crystal functions, and I also know they have quite minimal shielding. Most are smaller than your average capacitor. Shielding is mostly done via encasement, and most timekeeping devices have little to no need to be shielded against EM interference. To erase a hard drive requires a very powerful electro-magnet, and you don't find these in your average home. I doubt even an old CRT degausser would be powerful enough. What Im asking basically is how much EM power would be required to disrupt a quartz movement?

It's also not the only time keeping device.. There are also atomic clocks.. However if time itself as a dimension is shifting in relation to us, no time keeping device will notice.. It will still tell you that there are 24 hours per day..

Yeah but time manipulation is cooler than inter-dimensional physics. Imagine a smartphone app that could wind the works time clock forward a couple of hours. It could use HAARP, or stray flock of pigeons to harness the power on the universe and focus a space beam on your location, speeding time up for everyone.

As we accelerate into the Andromeda galaxy time will actually start slowing down..

I try not to worry about stuff that may happen long after Im dead. Unless that takes longer. Some of us are going to get the short end of the stick. Imagine being stuck in your 70's for 30 "years". Does bring up thoughts of Methuselah though. Maybe he wasnt 969, but really only 87? A bit like dog years haha.

Oh I thought you meant our Calendar was wrong and this is actually the date, which means you skipped my Birthday and I was all NOT COOL!

But you mean March 21, 2013 is actually the December 21, 2012...ok

So what century are we in again?

On a long enough timeline, everyone's survival rate drops to zero. We are doomed from birth. Just a fact of life for biological organisms.

If doomed means death, then sure, but I view death as a gift.

Try and comprehend that he is talking about March 21st 2013, not Today, and you will be a long way to understanding how your post makes no sense.

Wonder if sites like this will be around after the doom date? lol

I think you misunderstand... try and put more than 12 volts into your computer's DVD drive by putting your computer in a charged environment..

Anyway..

Here:

EDIT: oops, here is the source for below.
Link to Quartz crystal information

A crystal oscillator is an electronic oscillator circuit that uses the mechanical resonance of a vibrating crystal of piezoelectric material to create an electrical signal with a very precise frequency. This frequency is commonly used to keep track of time (as in quartz wristwatches), to provide a stable clock signal for digital integrated circuits, and to stabilize frequencies for radio transmitters and receivers. The most common type of piezoelectric resonator used is the quartz crystal, so oscillator circuits incorporating them became known as crystal oscillators, but other piezoelectric materials including polycrystalline ceramics are used in similar circuits.

Quartz crystals are manufactured for frequencies from a few tens of kilohertz to tens of megahertz. More than two billion crystals are manufactured annually. Most are used for consumer devices such as wristwatches, clocks, radios, computers, and cellphones. Quartz crystals are also found inside test and measurement equipment, such as counters, signal generators, and oscilloscopes.

So... they are effective as per their structure and shape, not outside influence.. They are like the AC/DC adapter on your computer that changes a voltage of 110-120 AC, to DC 12 -12 5 -5 or whatever it is, been awhile since I had my A+ certification..

The point is the adapter can take in different voltages, but only put out certain ones.. Quartz acts in this way.. Plus quartz is WAY WAY more resistant to EM than your Hard Drive which is why I brought that up.. If HARRP or something like this was changing Quartz crystal time then you wouldn't have a any HD memory..

MY POST MAKES NO SENSE? wow ats really went down the pooper.
