        k) I'll figure that out a year from now, when this millenium ends
           and the next one begins      1
           \_ Although this isn't the new millenium, it is the new Millenium.
              \_ So it happens a year earlier if you capitalize it?
              \_ Not content with being wrong, you insist on being boring
                 as well.
                 \_ I'm not wrong.  It is exactly as I stated it.  Boring was
                    the pedantic twit who said it wasn't the millenium in the
                    first place.
                    \_ Let me get this straight -- You believe that it isn't
                       the end of the "millenium", it is the end of the
                       "Millenium", and that the *other* guy is pedantic?
                        \_ One is about calendars.  The other is about the
                           mass media label.  Yes.  The *other* guy is a twit
                           and pedantic but I live in the real world.  I know
                           it isn't the new millenium by the calendar but I see
                           nothing wrong with people enjoying it as if it was.
                           How fun would it be celebrating 2001?  Only Arthur
                           C. Clarke geeks would see anything special about
                           that.  And oh yeah, the pedantic calendar geeks.
                           \_ Ah, so you place more value on mass media
                              labels than reality -- Got it.
                                \_ No.  I acknowledge that I live in a world
                                   with other people in it.  This is more
                                   important than the artificial nature of the
                                   calendar.  /usr/bin/cal isn't my best
                                   friend.  Keep your snide elitist crap to
                                   yourself.  You're not 1/1000th as clever as
                                   you seem to think.
                                   \_ Oh, agreed.  Far more clever to
                                      simultaneously think you're in two
                                      different milleniums.
