Word has it that on 12/21/2012, we're all toast anyways.

Actually, the predictions (there are five sources for that date) don't predict the death of humanity, what is predicted is a major change for humanity, and lots of death---but not total annihilation.
The source of this prediction is suppoesed to be ancient gods who told The Maya, Hopi Indians, and Chinese the date. There is a computer program that was designed for stock predictions, but has also predicted the 2004 tsunami and says bad things will happen on that date also. I forget what the fifth source is.
The ancient gods are projected to be aliens, with a substantial amount of evidence to back the claim. If that is true, and they have access to technology that could be thousands of years more advanced than ours, then the possibilities for 2012 are many.
Super Volcano Explodes. Yosemite has been showing signs of volcanic activity. Yosemite has been shown to explode about every 600,000 years. It has been 600,000 years since the last explosion.
Gamma Ray Burst. An advanced technology may be able to detect a Gamma Ray Burst from a dying star thousands of years before the effect hits us.
Aliens Make Themselves Known. The gods always said they'd be back--Jesus--Quexacoatl--the Jews expect a saviour, Allah. They may all be back, and want war. Or--the aliens with their tech simply enslave those they need for work, and kill those they don't want to feed or fight.

Nuclear War. There is a theory that there are people in the shadows who really run things---like Russia--America--the Mullahs--gas prices--food distribution. These people are said to be behind a New World Order, and part of that NWO may be starting over with a select part of humanity.
Pandemic Disease. Same theory as the nuclear war, but disease is used.
Of all the whacko end of the world theories, I give some credence to this one. The coincidence of the date from different sources---the fact that the Mayans accurately predicted their own end. Add in that the old gods are the gods the bible, koran, and talmud are based on, and the crediblity goes up. The religions of the planet are myths---but myths often have a basis in reality. The ancients may have been telling the truth about their gods being there in the flesh---and they may have been telling the truth about them coming back.
