    Rapture rescheduled: Now it's October

    Christian radio host Harold Camping says that even though the Rapture didn't happen on May 21 as he predicted, the end of the world is still on for Oct. 21. The revised prophecy came in a special statement made to the press today. It turns out that Saturday's cosmic no-show was just a test, and that sinners still have a chance to mend their ways before the Apocalypse sets in. I have a feeling that the disk jockeys who were spinning "It's the End of the World as We Know It" last weekend will be playing "Won't Get Fooled Again" in October.
