The reason we do not recognize this is in fact because the universe also spontaneously and entirely resumes existence once per chronon. As the reconstruction is total and complete, there is no perception of discretization possible from within the scope of this deconstruction/reconstruction phenomenon, and therefore we are presented with the illusion of an unceasing and unbroken continuity of existence. However, this observation can be empirically verified merely by adopting a vantage point present beyond the extent of the phenomenon: to wit, outside of the scope of the universe. Therefore, the universe will cease to exist in 2012, and has in fact already ceased to exist innumerable times within the span of time it took to write this post alone. Q.E.D. :angel:
Alternately, I am very tired, and find this latest outbreak of millenarianism furthermore tiresome.
