Just in case you thought that Russell was the only nutter engaged in this kind of speculation, I found this article about a very recent prediction, based on Khufu's pyramid:
Great Pyramid Predicts the End!

That's OK, Stephanus. There are also some of what I call "3rd Generation" Adventists out there, ready to go again; they even have fresh dates for all the prophecies. So, why not a fresh Pyramidologist or two??
After all, there is only a little over four decades left to make it 200 years of this circular BS. And we are now in the third century of this: (1844-1899, 1900-1999, 2000-20xx).

Even though it's been going on for nearly two centuries now, it's still a very recent movement by historical standards. I note that the guy who came up with the 2001 date from the pyramid did so by changing the dating system from 1 inch = 1 year; after 1914 he changed it to 1 inch = 1 month. IOW, if he'd been consistent and had allowed 1 inch per year all the way along the pyramid's passages, it will be a least another 900 years before the "Biblical calendar" within the pyramid runs out - plenty of scope for people to keep using the pyramid as a dating system for most of this millennium!

Remember the old saying that "the Bible was a fiddle that you could play any tune on"? Well, watch out or your Pyramids will be used that way; it would be a shame for you to be misled by FALSE Pyramidology!!
