Un-raptured

Something occurred to me over the weekend that 200 million people weren’t subsumed into heaven (at least that I know about): Harold Camping has twice predicted the end of days based on his mathematical calculations. And he’s two for two.

But he was trained and practiced as a civil engineer for many years. Shouldn’t someone be rechecking his jobs to make sure he didn’t miscalculate any compressive tension estimates on bridges or buildings? Or shouldn’t we at least be told what construction projects he worked on so we can avoid them?
