I have real doubts. Especially when the alleged e-mail talks about it "blowing" with comet Ison and solar flares causing "fault lines" to act up. Ison and solar flares have nothing to do with causing fault lines or super-volcanos to act up.

If the alleged e-mail lacks credibility, because it totally lacks any scientific basis, then the whole story falls apart.

IMO, someone made up the e-mail, and tried to make it more "credible" by throwing in that extra stuff, without understanding basic science. Given that a recent survey said that 1 in 4 Americans think the sun revolves around the earth, the lack of scientific knowledge is not surprising.
