    Re: End of the World confirmed

    The clue was under the video tbh:

    Julia Gillard has recorded a tongue-in-cheek video address to the nation warning the world is about to come to an apocalyptic end, as predicted in the Mayan calendar. In the 55-second spoof clip, recorded for Triple J radio, Ms Gillard addresses her "remaining fellow Australians" warning of zombies, hell beasts and a K-pop armageddon.

    Re: End of the World confirmed

    So when will the world end?

    Because time starts in greenwich right, because we invented time in London at the royal observatory. So does that mean it will still be the 21st for the Americas. Or does it happen in the afternoon? In which case it could be the 23rd.

    THESE QUESTIONS MUST BE ASKED

    Re: End of the World confirmed

    well the end is based on the Myan calendar and the the Myan empire was based in central america in roughly what is the Central time zone so I would assume there is where it would be measured.

    And for the record "time" was invented by nobody

    It is generally accepted that The Hindus were the first to measure "time" over 7000 years ago

    The Egyptians invented the water clock and the modern pendulum based mechanical clock was invented by the dutch

    Time zones were invented by a Canadian Railway planner Sir Sandford Fleming in the 1870's they were adopted by US railway companies first to standardize their schedules.

    They were adopted by the rest of the world in 1884.

    GMT was the time observed by the royal observatory in Greenwich and got adopted as the global time standard when time zones were introduced.

    so really as far as time goes the British invented nothing
