He never said anything, Phenom. We assumed that he said the world'll end in July 1999. He never gave direct info. We inferred. We have to assume our inference wrong.
Nope. He infact gave direct Date.
Code:
The year 1999, seventh month, [or simply "sept"]

As every criticizer would say, even I would say, why do all interpret the prophecies

before the events, now that will be
prediction.
