In the year 2012, an Olympic sprinter will break the land speed record and run so fast that it rips a hole in the time-space continuum and will cause the end of the universe.

Sounds like a load of rubbish? That explains my point nicely. I have read about the 2012 disaster, although if you take a time to think about it, how many end of the worlds have we lived through already? I recall hearing several during my short 20 years on this plannet. Just because this is scientific does not mean that it is going to happen, although I cannot say that for certain. If there is a meteor, it will create a large radius of damage, but to completely eradicate humanity it has to be pretty hefty!

Either way we really shouldn't worry about whether or not its coming, and just carry on living. The media is constantly fearmongering to take our minds off the political crap thats going on.
