I’m glad someone of your authority has set our minds at ease on this.

So, one is 'not an authority' if they disagree with whacked out doomsday scenarios? Color me skeptical because guys like Celente have been pushing this stuff since 2006 and 2007 and nothing has happened. As far as am I concerned, you guys need to put up or shut up. GIVE US A DATE and quit scaring everyone. At least I can do that.

No one is giving a date.
We’re saying that the numbers show that it’s inevitable,
and to not make some sort of contingency preparations is foolish.

No need to carry around that extra weight in the back of your vehicle so toss the spare tire but remember to put it back in on Thursday, July 26, 2012 because at 2:53 you're going to have a flat. Same with your health insurance. No need to pay expensive premiums because you won't be needing it until July 26 when you foolishly cut your hand when changing that tire and need stitches. FYI, your house is safe from any disaster until the second Monday in March 2019 when it burns to the ground from a lightening strike so might as well cancel the homeowners insurance until then. Oh, almost forgot, your son won't be needing that college fund you've scrimped and sacrificed for so you might as well party it up now.
