I see we have some interesting conversation going on here as we get closer.

When it comes to the topic of 2012 I am somewhere in the middle. I'm not feeling the "love" as it were, but I'm not feeling dread either. What I do feel however is that the truth will come out.

I've been doing alot of reading since the American election and quite frankly I am a little worried about peoples attitude. To me it seems like everyone is letting their "guard" down with Obama getting elected, thinking he's some sort savior or something.

At this point I would agree that anything but Bush is good for America right now, but I think people are going to be disappointed when real change doesn't happen once the new pres is sworn in. Is the patriot act going to be reversed? Are greedy corporations and the fat cats who run them going to be strapped to rockets and launched into the sun? I think not. The western world (the vast majority)is going to pat itself on the back and think problem solved. Then the whole cycle will repeat itself again.

The economy will go bad again.

There will be another war somewhere.

so on and so on.

I would agree that the rate of change has increased, and will continue to. I hope more people realise this, I still think 99.9 percent are still sheeple and still need to wake up. I still find the vast majority of people function on autopilot and cannot see the big picture.

I still think there is work to be done. So everyone out there, do me a favor. Try to make the world a better place, don't just focus on yourself, help others.
