Only a handful of wingnuts thought anything huge was gonna happen.
Same with 2012.
Quoting: Builder of the Adytum I never thought anything would happen. Furthermore, wasn't that only about computers malfunctioning? Last spring I read that certain GPS's would not work after April 6th. Sure enough, my portable GPS I used in my car didn't work after that date. My iPhone GPS works better anyhow. Quoting: nutmeg The core hysteria centered around electronic banking and the possibility that accounts would be lost or inacessible for several days. I simply wrote myelf a short-term interest-free loan by pulling a couple of Grand out of the bank to have some extra cash onhand just in case. Three days later, I simply re-deposited same back into the bank and life went on just fine. I still do the exact same thing if there is a major blizzard predicted - it's just COMMON-SENSE! Like filling your car up with gas when a Saudi oilfield goes up in flames, 'cause it's a given that prices will spike for at least a few days as a reault. No harm, no foul!
