They're also one of the groups that are constantly predicting the Second Coming. They've been doing it for about a century now, and everytime Jesus shows up late, they move the date forward... :)

Yes... wasn't 1914 their first date? Instead, we got WWI... But I suppose they have melted that into a plausible-sounding theory somehow.

If you want a look at numerology in action, take a look at how they came up with the date 1914. Taking verious numbers from the Book of Daniel (and Ezekiel if my memory servers me), using all sorts of interesting arithmetic, and presto-chango, all hell breaks loose in 1914.
