From a review of the upcoming eschatological* blockbuster "2012", in today's Vancouver Sun:
The plot is made up of several stories of human drama as the world races closer to destruction. This is because of solar activity that creates neutrinos...
On first reading, I was bumfuzzled and nonplussed (never a pleasant combination of sensations). The plot is made up of several stories because of solar activity? Sure, after the eye doubles back, it becomes clear enough that "this" refers to the world and its race to destruction. Hardly the most egregious example of the confusion that can result from an unclear antecedent, but the best one I've found today.
*"Eschatology: The branch of theology that is concerned with the end of the world or of humankind." Cool word, don't you think?
