IDK, theories #2, #5, and #7 are pretty hard not to believe. This year alone since January seems to be the year of earth quakes. I think earlier this year there was a small quake in Illinois (correct me if I'm wrong). I don't think the world will end in 2010, but there is a strong possibility that major earth changes will occur (ie. a lot more volcano eruptions, more earth quakes, more hurricanes, etc...) than any other year(if that makes any sense).
