Same old inaccuracies about Dec 21 2012

A new article on the possibility of a doomsday in Dec 2012 has appeared online. Unfortunately it adds nothing new, offering solar flares as the cause of chaos, and has a few inaccuracies...

1) "the next "solar maximum" event will coincide with December 21, 2012" - well, the date keeps changing, but is typically 2011 or 2012, but no scientist would dare name a precise date, it just isn't possible to call it with any sort of accuracy.

2) "On the same day when our Sun is at it's solar maximum, something will happen that's never happened before -- the ecliptic of our solar system will intersect with the Glactic plane, called the "Galactic Equator" of the Milky Way!" - not true, the aligment occurs over a few decades, mostly before 2012, and unfortunately the popular meme says it happens on a precise day, a great distortion of the facts
