Oh, puh-lease. They haven't even bothered to change the wording since last time!
Still, it's a surefire way to become a prophet - make predictions constantly until one comes true, and then everyone with the right (read: fundie) mentality will forget all the others.
I predict that at some unspecified time in the future, Los Angeles will be a deserted ghost town, never to be inhabited by humans again.
Look Ma, I'm a prophet!
AND IF IT DOESN'T.....WELL....then how 'bout the 27th? No, oh wait, my kid has a soccer game on the 27th, that's no good. The 28th? No? Ah, you have a dentists appointment. Well, we don't want to cut into the weekend. Can everyone do Monday the 2nd? Is Monday the 2nd good for everyone? It is? Excellent!
<AHEM>
"We now predict a terrorist Nuclear Bomb will hit the UN plaza in Midtown Manhattan between 2 p.m. and Sundown on, oh hell, I forgot to make up a freaky sounding Hebrew date, um...Schlotzkys the 14th (Tuesday October 2nd).
What calendar are these guys using? September 26, this year, is 4 Tishri not 30 Elul. And since there are only 29 days in Elul, they can't even use the excuse that the dates might coincide sometime in the future.
I also predict that their site will continue to get lots of hit next week when they change the date yet again.
Just a question, since I don't see any advertising on their "page 1". Would they get any revenue from hits even if we do not go anywhere near their other pages?
Is this just a revenue earner? (I cannot believe they are absolutely total dickwads.

Oh, look. It's 2pm EST. You're probably wrong again, since I doubt anything is headed towards NY that will hit it by sundown.
These are just getting tiring, really. The first 8 were funny, but it's old now.
7:39 PM, September 26th
Wrong again. What's your next guess? I think your lack of a correct prediction would dissuade you from making another, but yet again, I'll probably be proven wrong.
Now it reads
We now predict a terrorist Nuclear Bomb will hit the UN plaza in Midtown Manhattan on 2006Tishri10 (between Sundown Thursday October 5th and Sundown Friday October 6th)
We now have 10 revised scriptural calculations all of which predict this attack as falling in the Biblical Lunar Calendar month of Tishri, 2006 (i.e. before sundown October 26th, 2006)
The changed the month and day in the headline but only the month in the sub text.
Laaaaaayyyzeeee,
;)
For some reason, this reminds me of someone who doesn't want to get up in the morning pushing the snooze button repeatedly.
"Just one more month, ma. C'mon, just gimme one more month."
They keep getting the alarm, yet they just hit snooze, delay it further, and refuse to wake up to reality.
When I go to the casino to a roulette table, announce each round that ball will score the 17, and after 89 rounds, when a 17 really gets scored, then to boast with one's "predicting powers": Sorry, this is NO valid method of predicting the future.
September 26th? OMFG, that's right around the corner. AAAAaaarrggghhh! Run tell the king the sky is falling!!!!1!@!@!!!
Wait . . . this was posted in 2006?
Never mind.
Confused?
