  • Letter from the Editor


  • Dear Readers,
    It’s hard to believe that another year is here. And, of course 2012 is special due to the amount of attention it’s received for the end of the Mayan calendar. We asked some of our readers what they thought about this “end-of-the-world” prophecy, as well as what they’d be doing if those big, beautiful volcanoes we love so much decided to misbehave in a big way (page 22). While most of the Mayan priests and Mayan theologians I’ve talked to and read say it’s not THE END, but just a transition into another era, I think I’ll be living it up… just in case.

    Over the last few months, we’ve made a lot of changes to Qué Pasa and we plan even more improvements over the next few months. I’d like to thank our loyal readers who have contacted us about them. Their feedback has been very useful. We want Qué Pasa to be the best it can be for our readers! So, if you see something new that you love or hate, please let us know.

    Everyone at Qué Pasa wishes you the very best for the New Year!

    Sincerely,
    Keri
