Several years ago, there was a shaggy-haired, very ernest young man outside a Metro station in D.C. with a sign that said, "The world will end on September 18." Starting on 19 September, I never saw this young man again.

LOL! Sorta like this guy:

William Miller (1782-1849). Predicted the world would end on at least three separate occasions in 1843 and 1844.

What's really odd is that his church not only survived the failure of the prophecy, but prospered. Go figure.
