There seems to be a good old fashioned mystic mountain battle brewing between Mount Rtanj and France’s Pic de Bugarach. The Telegraph reports:
Hotel owners around the pyramid-shaped Mount Rtanj, a supposedly mystical mountain in the east of the Balkan country, say that bookings are flooding in, with believers who are convinced that the end of a Mayan calendar heralds the destruction of the world hoping that its purported mysterious powers will save them from the apocalypse.
Adherents of the end-of-the-world scenario think the 5,100ft-high mountain, part of the Carpathian range, conceals a pyramidal building inside, left behind by alien visitors thousands of years ago. Arthur C Clarke, the British science fiction writer, reportedly identified the peak as a place of “special energy” and called it “the navel of the world”.
“In one day we had 500 people trying to book rooms. People want to bring their whole families,” said Obrad Blecic, a hotel manager. Doomsday cultists believe that it emits special energy that could be channeled to protect them from the end of life as we know it.

I take it black and can make biscotti out of bone meal and sweat meat. As violence is the ultimate denominator of currency I will charge gory mutilation & carnage in exchange for whatever I want post-Apocalypse.
