A request of our Australian members

[Alpine 1789]

Since you live in the future, please let us know if fire starts raining down from the sky. If tomorrow is truly the end, I want to take my Alpine out for one last drive.

 

[Ken Ellis]

Of course, put the top up to protect you from the fire raining from the sky.
Maybe wear a hat, too.

I hear pointy tin-foil ones work really well.

We are okay here in Seattle, Raining like crazy so any fires will be quickly damped. Never the less, a short heads up would be appreciated.

 

[Nickodell]

How would it affect you guys. Doesn't it rain upward in Australia anyhow?

They misinterpreted the sun shining off the Spanish armor. Thought it was the second coming of Christ, a minor holiday on their calendar.

And they were a little busy, the Spanish erradicated them and the culture...they had other things on their minds than to continue a calendar.

If they were able to predict the end of the world, you'd think they'd been able to predict their own end....

The Mayans were long gone before the Spanish arrived If Monteczuma was not such a pussy he could have ran them all off. Read 'Atez' by Gary Jennings
It's a comparable read to 'Forrest Gump' and 'Little Big Man' where the main charactor moved in and out of the historical facts going on at the time.
