Sorry. Was on a sugar high when I posted this.
I've heard all sorts of things about 2012, which is why I asked. I was curious what people thought about it. More wondering about what the people who think we're doomed think is going to happen than anything. I've heard everything from meteorites to the rotation of the earth completely reversing direction.

We can't nuke a metor due to some complications. First, it may not shatter if it's too large, so the explosion would have to be from the inside. Second, if it did blow up, the gravity of the fragments would cluster back together to form a loose collection of rocks the size of Delaware. So, instead of one big impact, you have hundreds of impacts. It would be like shooting the Earth with a cosmic-sized shotgun. Then again, the single large impact could have more lasting effects, kicking up dust and ash into the atmosphere for hundreds of years.
Well, what could we do to keep it from killing us all?
It's calculated to not hit the Earth. It's just a near Earth object that is passing uncomfortably close. If any unseen variables alter the course of this meteorite, it potentially could doom us, but that's a miniscule chance. I always thought the best way to divert a meteor would be nuking it from a great distance so that the explosion can give it an altered orbit.

Your Crazy!!!
I'm terrorfied!
I can see it already. Someone getting flaten like a paper! LOL!!!! But the chances of getting hit is so slim, that you have a higher chance of getting struck by lightning. You will most likely die from the shock wave than getting a direst hit from an asteroid. As for dooms day. I'll take my chaces. Either that kills me or I die before that happens. But I just hope that none of those I just said will happen any time soon.

May 5th, 2000 was our last doomsday; it came and went without a hitch. Funny how none of the Nostradamus would-bes ever said beforehand that something catastrophic would happen on, say, September 11th, 2001. After the fact, we sure postered that date all over the place. Beforehand, though, no one thought anything about it, but there was plenty of doom a little over a year earlier, on what turned out to be an ordinary day.
OK, I'm a sucker for prophesies as a writer. I had werewolves reveal themselves on December 10, 2012, a little less than two weeks beforehand. Mass chaos, but not the end of the world even then. It sure feels like it for a few months in 2065, though, when aliens invade.
As far as what will really happen, I think the day itself will be fairly uneventful for the majority of people, though the time period in general might be pretty stressful. There will be turmoil in the Middle East--ooh, prophesy! Bet you couldn't have predicted that one.

Fact..... I've almost been struck by lightning Twice! and it was only feets away..... were I had been just standing only minutes before, each time.
Quite scary..... it's like someone's out to get me....
There should be an option like Other an explain..But yea anyways I dun think the world will end. I dunno if there is a set time, if so I dun think any of use know the exact date..I think the world will change not be destroyed..I look forward to a new world, a better world, but who's to say that will happen while ur alive? Maybe the better world is in death like an after life however the new world that comes along will be for others. Who? Dunno..No one can know..I just hope watever happens is a good thing..
no one knows when it gonna happen and worrying about it only takes away from your own life, thats why you stop worrying if your going to die and start living life the way you want too!

Dang! It's a good thing you moved. Or you won't be with us today. Dont worry about it. It's not like someone is out to get ou. Your just at the wrong place at the wrong time. But, your alive. That's all the matters.

Well, this is assuming the planet was blanketed by dark clouds of dust from the impact, killing plantlife and most everything else.
If this ever happens, we should set up a place where the entire Pack can meet. We'll wander together. Homemade weapons and all. Why weapons you may ask? Because it would be anarchy, and anyone can attack anybody without the law stopping them.
