The money shot:
Pierce: "Do you have any idea what this could mean?!" (this=the Mayan calender resets after year 5126)
Jeremy: "That a bunch of ancient Mayans will be dating their checks 5127 by mistake?"

4. I keep reminding woos that the calendar merely resets

It doesn't seem to penetrate. Some people like to scare themselves over nothing, I think. It keeps religious leaders up to their earlobes in ermine.
