I actually found a Pro-Doom video on YouTube a while back that explained this whole "crossing the plane" thing to me. The idea isn't that the Solar system itself is moving across the Galactic Plane, it's that the position of the GP as projected on the Celestial Sphere will cross the Ecliptic right where the Sun happens to be on 21-Dec-2012.
You know, just like every other year.
Edit to change pic to one with labels
