February 20, 201313 yr at least it will be well after I'm dead... http://news.yahoo.com/higgs-boson-particle-may-spell-doom-universe-152236961.html
February 21, 201313 yr Active Members Nothing lasts forever. Long before that happens our Milky Way Galaxy will crash into our neighbor the Andromeda Galaxy with our little bastion uncertain as to the outcome. And before that our Sun will go Nova after expanding as a Red Giant whose surfaced will engulf the orbit of the Earth. Oh, and before that there will be the occasional asteroid or comet impact, and before that climate change will dry up the planet causing a mass extinction. All of this overlooks the unanticipated Super Nova that fries the Earth with cosmic rays or the random encounter with a meandering mini-black-hole that bumps into us in the night, sucking us into its even horizon. The bottom line is: the only thing certain is yesterday... and yesterday's gone. Happy dreams.
