DeBunking 2012
The upcoming film, scheduled to be in theaters Friday, November 13, is about the belief that many have concerning the Meso-American, or Mayan, long count calendar, which supposedly portends the end of the world in 2012.
"There's a lot of misunderstanding surrounding this", contends Walter. "This date is about the end of their calendar, not the entire world. It's similar to what we do when December 31 rolls around each year . . . we simply flip the calendar to January 1."
The interview airs on Columbia's WOLO channel 19 on November 9 at 11 PM.
