Didn't the Mayans, like many other ancient civilizations, wipe their own selves out? lol Yea, sure they were supposed to be smart and probably did something historically significant once or twice (I'm not a history expert), but come on. Since when are they experts on anything? I don't get the freak out about this.

Like other people said, I don't get how this started. Seems like some conspiracy theorists took some info about Mayans and then just starting making stuff up. I guess most conspiracies have some basis in reality but then crazy people get a hold of the info and stuff gets bizarre. Why people are taking it seriously though, I can't understand.
