May 21, 2011, Is Doomsday? Twitter Ain't Buyin' It

The world will end on May 21. Or not.

Harold Camping, a Christian radio broadcaster from California, has picked May 21, 2011, as the start of the end times. Now, as the date draws near, he's organized a doomsday caravan of fellow believers to travel across the country, spreading the word about the end of the world.

On Twitter, it's a tough sell.
