Happy 2000 (that begs the question nicely) to all my friends in OZ and to all souls on Mudcat. I'm hoping selfishly that the reassurance we get as each time zone makes the transition without problems may diminish the panic-quotient. I know that the Millennium itself is in 2001, and it probably has already been 2004 years since Jesus was born, and were I a Creationist it would have been 6003 years since the world was created (I actually have an old Bible that gives Ussher's dates in the margin; he dates Creation as 9 AM October 21, 4004 BC) , but there is something wonderful about seeing all those zeroes as the world's odometer rolls over. I wish you all a wonderful 2000 and many more years
