"Helpfully, two NASA scientists have been hard at work over the past few months responding to questions from the public. Yesterday, NASA compiled some of the most popular questions, creating an "everything you ever needed to know about Comet Elenin" Q&A."

Yup, we abandon the space program so we can satisfy nuts that won't even read or listen to any of the facts they spent months working.

the biggest danger to the planet is the greedy human race who live on it thats probably how it will end

Another meteor made of lava, fire and uranium will come out of a black hole and destroy us.

a zombie outbreak is still possible

Please, the Mayans were a semi-civilized people. If the ancient Greeks or Romans said the world was ending in 2012 then I might be worried.

I quote a TV show ""The 21st century is when everything changes. And we have to be ready."  (Yes I know it doesn't relate to 2012 directly). 

Or you know what? A Lavos-like force emerges and consumes time and energy.

They have more way more crazy theories. Elenin was just the newest one. It was clear long ago that it wouldnt come close to earth.

All the other theories arent even worth mentioning.

Solarflares are regular events there is a solar maximum every ten years. 2012 happens to be in that time frame but Its unlikely it will have a catastrophic effect.

I don't think that's how black holes work lol

He obviously meant a white hole, but a black hole sounds much more ominous.
