Will 2012 be the End of the World?

The countdown starts today for those who believe 2012 will mark the end of the world.

The countdown begins today for those who believe that the Mayans had it right. That, yes, in fact, the world will end exactly one year from now -- December 21, 2012.

And, for the next year, many will be gathering preparations for that final day marked on the Mayan calendar. Others are planning to spend the whole time partying.
