In 1997, Richard Noone published a book entitled 5/5/2000 Ice: The Ultimate Disaster. In the book, Noone predicted the earth was headed for a second ice age, speculating the polar ice caps would start getting bigger. At the same time, all of the planets would fall into alignment, which would somehow make the ice shift from north to south, starting another ice age.

Noone's book covers a lot of ground – everything from the Egyptian Pyramids to the Knights Templar. He was convinced that practically every conspiracy theory on record was linked to May 5, 2000, when ice would spell the end of the world for us.

Of course, May 5, 2000 came and went without massive polar ice caps or the resurrection of the Knights Templar. I'm pretty sure the pyramids didn't do anything special that day either.
