Sounds like Dogbert's logic regarding Y2K. :)

Hey, the Y2K thing made sense from a Christian perspective if you didn't know the calendar is off from the date it's supposed to be recording!  Maybe God likes round numbers.  Except then you have to explain away the bit in the Bible about how no one knows the time He will end the world, but whatever; it seems a lot of people are perfectly willing to ignore that bit.

its Bogota :D, well is media paranoia you find information in the Internet in the news, radio, TV morning shows, newspapers, even NASA talks about the high sun activity, so everybody talks about 2012 but not about 2013.

 Well I don't remember watching a solar double halo, 2 rainbows around the sun in my city before you can check the videos in you tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1aYU4P672u8http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52DWbc-OAgM&feature=relatednever happened before.

There's people who'll swear the moon can't be seen during the day. People generally just ignore the sky most of the time. So you've never personally seen those halos (that you noticed)...how can you conclude they've never happened before? How many times could it have happened without you noticing?

Laurel:
Gtvc, did you mean that double solar halos have never happened before in Colombia or that they've never happened before anywhere? Because these images appear to predate the YouTube video.
