2012 or so called DOOMSDAY! It's not going to happen. Why? Well first of all there have been around 100 "doomsday." It was 2000. 1999. 1990. 2002, 2001 but it keeps changing. The reason 2000 was supposed to be doomsday was because of the new Century and the computers that operated water and electrify were not programed to operate in 2000. But what happened. NO DOOMSDAY! If the leaders believed in doomsday so much. Why would all these important events be scheduled? (Wikipedia)

- On the sun, the solar maximum of Solar Cycle 24 in the 11-year sunspot cycle is forecast to occur. Solar Cycle 24 is regarded to have commenced January 2008, and on average will reach its peak of maximal sunspot activity around 2012. The period between successive solar maxima averages 11 years (the Schwabe cycle), and the previous solar maximum of Solar Cycle 23 occurred in 2000–2002.[14] During the solar maximum the sun's magnetic poles will reverse.[15]
