on the comet Elenin.
Much of the information can still be verified via sources such as Wilkipedia
all of the dates can be verified as to when earthquakes occurred
Information on this comet does not come up i a search of NASA's site.
From Google.com I found

In spite of these simple facts, some websites (such as godlikeproductions) are making wild claims that Elenin will hit the Earth, or disturb our orbit, or cause tides, or interact with our magnetic field. Such claims are pure fiction. One of the worst examples is a video that someone posted on the NASAbuzzroom website that claims that the magnetic field of the comet will cause a large shift in the rotation axis of the Earth and produce mega-earthquakes on March 15, 2011. It is hard to imagine anyone would take this seriously. Comets don't have magnetic fields, and magnetic fields can't change the rotation axis or cause earthquakes no matter how large they are. Adding to the craziness is a claim that this same comet caused the Earth's axis to shift by 3 degrees in February 2010 and caused the Chile Earthquake. These are simply lies; the comet was far away a year ago, and there was no change whatever in Earth's rotation axis

"The Pleistocene Epoch ended 11,800 years ago when the climate warmed abruptly to its historically experienced condition and sea level began its rise by some 105 meters due to additions of glacial ice melt water"
According to Wikipeida
c/2010 x1 has an Orbital period: ~11,800 yr[4]
