Well the end of the world was a bust

I was hoping that at least something would happen this time, but I guess the Mayan’s calendar ending on 21-December-2012 is just the same problem as the Clipper development language that only recognized dates until 31-December-2999 (God help us if those systems are still running then).  I’m sure that the *nix date has some finite point too, but I’m not sure what it is.
