It can hardly blow up the reactor. But i share your dreams of something blowing up france Hmm where is this working fusion reactor you speak of? Because a prototype working fusion reactor is still ~25 years away. Many scientists are still skeptical of whether building a fusion reactor is a feasible goal, I think eventually we'll have the technological prowess to build one but currently there are some very very large advances that need to be made before we see a working fusion reactor. But I'm optimistic. On a more related note, I mean guys the world ending... really!? Really!? Our apocalypse is going to be from ourselves. I.e, global warming making refugees out of millions, possibly billions of costal inhabitants, increased droughts leads to starvation, leads to war over fertile land, then when the world is in turmoil some douche bag terrorist unleashes a genetically engineered super virus that wipes out much of the human population. Thats my best guess. The earth isn't going anywhere, humans probably are though. But not in 2012 or at anytime we can accurately predict.
Let me first say I'm quite well aware of fusion research and I have folowed several courses about it. I'm most likely gonna change my master into nuclear fusion.
There are countless of Fusion reactors, Tokamaks and several other kinds in the world. Currently the best one JET is already up to the point of break even. The big fusion reactor that will be completed in about 10 years (ITER) will have a power multipliation of a factor 10. Fusion research isn't some dream. If it wasn't for political reasons (oil price) ITER would have been completed by now.

I am willing to bet £200,000 that the world will not end on that day. Anyone confident enough to take that wager is free to PM with their paypal information.

More people died in that fire-bombing than died in either Hiroshima or Nagisaki.

I wonder what crazy stuff some will do the days before the end of the world.

So mayans could predict the end of the world but they werent able to predict the end of their own civilisation? Cut the bullcrap please...

I will never understand the credence that people give ancient civilisations and in general, superstition, for no good reason.
It makes me sad that people still think the orientation of stars that are light years away have any discernible effect on the human race, or even the planets have this said effect.
Then again I have friends who are young Earth creationists.
It must be denial, or a need to somehow feel important.

It was my understanding that the Mayan calendar ended in 2012, but it was never a prediction of the end of the world. In fact, there have been several Mayan Calenders that have been found ending with earlier dates (already passed, and the world didnt end). Lot of poppycock if you ask me. =P

It's all about the star alignments! Just ask Raymond Domenech.

I personally believe that there _might_ happen something, I'm not saying it will, but I'm definitely staying open to the possibility that some kind of event may occur 2012. Maybe not doomsday, who knows? We'll see, time will tell..

I think economic collapse will the the closest thing to a doomsday that can happen in 2012. Maybe nuclear war between Iran and Israel also.

Jist because you say "personally" and "might" doesn't make it any less retarded than someone saying something definitely will happen. You're both making baseless extraordinary claims. I'm real surprised to see people with internet access giving any credit to this conspiracy theory if you could even call it a theory.

all i know... is i have a feeling A LOT of crime is going to happen on the 26th if people think they are going to die... just my prediction.

Many historians believe that 200-300 years of our history actually never existed, and it was actually a small segment of history which was expanded and exaggerated over time. This would put us closer to about 1700 AD in real time, meaning we won't have to worry about any Mayan predictions for quite some time to come.
