The Rational Side of "2012"

[Maeria]

Edgar Casey in the early 1900's predicted this pole shift, and he landed the axis shift only a degree off from the current scientist's estimation.. he made a lot of other predictions also which came true.

Edgar Cayce said he'd calculated the age of the pyramids (and failed).

I can't link to the article, but he once appeared on the scene of an accident of some sort, utterly shocked as the rest of the curious onlookers. Or maybe he could only predict watery, distant sort of events which were unlikely to occur or verify in his lifetime...

EDIT: WiseMonkey is, in fact, wise.
