My first thought is this could be the 'blue star' that the Hopi's predicted.
The blue katchina? (spelling)
If the comet passes close enough to give Earth viewer a show, and it gives a blueish hue..
This could very well be it!
It's got me thinking thats for sure.
Comet C/2010 X1 (Elenin) is a long-period comet discovered by Russian astronomer Leonid Elenin on December 10, 2010 at International Scientific Optical Network's robotic observatory near Mayhill, New Mexico, U.S.A.

If you do a quick search you will find that Elenin was not found until December last year. So there is no way that it could have aligned with the Sun and Earth in Feb 2010 and caused a 3 degree shift.
Actually here you go:

So basically you're telling me that they can predict where the comet is going in the future based on its orbit, but they couldn't figure out where it was a few months before it was reportedly found. Sounds to me you're not using logic.
