Which is because of the Mayan calendar that was found in the 1900's. But since then people have been researching it more and more as the time is getting closer, and they noticed one flaw. Specifically that the mayans didn't have a leap year effect. So with that in mind they calculated the time when the Mayan calendar truly meant that the world would be over in days it happened last July. Which in and of itself is very cool to me, because that just shows how much Ceasar kind of saved us. Our seasons would be in a constant state of slight change. Over the past 2000 odd years its changed over a full year and a half from where the Mayans thought that the date should be.
I personally don't believe in the whole the world is going to end on 12/12/12. It really just feels like they just felt that that would be a good day to end their calendar, because they ran out of room on their circular calendars. But that's just me. I don't really go for things like that because if it happens it happens. No use wasting my time worrying about it. Or on the flip side I feel that some people may use it as an excuse to just act like whatever they want, because it doesn't matter because the world is going to end tomorrow. That would probably be the biggest amount of chaos is everyone doing stupid things. But like I said that is just my findings and then my opinion on the whole end of the world theory.
