History tells us great nations/kingdoms last ~250 years. I remember celebrating our nation's bicentennial in 1975. That was our 200 year celebration.

That was 45 years ago. Lemme see. 250 - 200 - 45 = 5 years left?

This article certainly makes it seem plausible.

Thank God! I thought climate change was gonna get us.
