Whatever happened to the Elenin crowd anyway? Did they all die of embarrassment or have they conveniently moved on from that failed nutjob theory to this one?

Don't know, but I believe comet Elenin broke up into about 64 pieces. They're still out there and the last piece in a long train is coming very close to earth in the near future. I could be wrong about it being Elenin, but not about the 60+ pieces with the trailing piece coming relatively close to earth. If I run across it again in JPL small-body orbit simulator, I'll post it. :-)
