Or could it be they didn't even expect themselves to exist that long?  So why make it longer?

---

That seems quite pessimistic.

---

Not really.
Chances of the earth surviving at the current rate till the year 3001 seems slim. Why see what day 01/01/3001 is then?

You obviously didn't watch Futurama, otherwise you wouldn't be saying such!

Seriously though, I am quite sure the Mayans were aware their calendar was flawed, but since it would first be a problem so many years in the future, they didn't felt they needed to bother.  It was working fine for them at the time, so why remake it?

And if they really did think it would be the end of the world, what did they design as the beginning of the calendar?

Well there will always be a group of people predicting that the world will end in X years but unless there's strong scientific saying the world will end in 2012 that's when i will panic.

why panic, if its going to happen there isnt much that we can do about it..just live out our lives...

i personally dont think the world will end too soon but i am concerned about global warming and climate change...

This is something that concerns me honestly, I don't want a climate change, that wouldn't be good.

A climate change? Global warming has been going on since the start of time. And something cool my chemistry teacher taught us, carbon dioxide actually contributes a very small to it, the thing which contributes the most is something that is emitted from the ocean (carbon monoxide I think, I can't remember...). But yeah something along those lines.
