I think it's pretty obvious that at the very moment the countdown stops, zombie Hitler will be resurrected, and he'll take over the world.
That, or it's just another one of those stupid "end of the world" counters that pops up every month or so. :

lol...
It was a study to see how people would respond to very little infomation about something.
From the various irc places I went... The responce was pathedic. Humans are not much better than sheep when they are a bit scared.
Ah well, those who looked at it with a clear head won this round, those who spammed and went nuts... lost.

Or he's just making it up.
Forgive him because he knows not what he do.
Speculation goes nowhere anyways.
Since this isn't the end of the world its a great time to mention.
It's not the years in your life, but the life in your years.

I looked around teh intarweb, and found many forums that had an "eon8" thread had a very similair post from (one would assume) the creator of the site. I'm guessing this is where DarkKilauea got this info from, but nobody can really be sure that he's actually the creator of the site... DUM-DUM-DUMMM!
So now it would be interesting to know, did anybody actually get scared in the last seconds of the countdown?

I got my info from the site directly, and from an irc channel that I was looking at during the last 30 seconds.

Heh, I finally got the page to load for me. Pretty interesting, and I know now that those posts were probably from the creator, or else they were just copied from the site.

Well that was very interesting. The creator made a great point about how pointless speculation is taken to serious and people lose all sense of decent judgement. But it is human nature that we are afraid of things we don't understand. Thats why we have science so we lose the sense of being afraid but that's impossible.
I only fear two people.
God and my dad.
and my bully

I have this crazy crazy idea that its an author trying to promote a book, but its probably something more realistic like the end of the world
