Agreed that Mayans believe something will happen. If you research it, the variations of what the "significant change" will be is truly amazing. Most of the beliefs appear to be "new age" style, being as vague as "the dark and the light becoming balanced".

My motivation in pointing this out is that the mass-marketed media claim is "the Mayans knew this would be the end of the world". This is a baseless statement created only for the entertainment of others (e.g. the movie "2012").
