Some newsreaders (perhaps even most) adjust posting dates such that the time is
displayed using your own timezone.

Great to hear things went smoothly down there too!  :)

I spent the rollover to Y2K swimming in the ocean in the pitch black
watching fireworks under a starry sky :)

Happy New Year everyone!

Keep up the good work Mr Cason!

I've been watching CNN's coverage of the New Year's celibrations around
the world. they didn't cover Melbourne, but if what went on in Sydne is
any indication, you are having one whale of a goot time.

Happy New Year to you all!

Now me and my wife got back home and we just checked if everything works
(Yes it does!). So once again a happy new year to everyone around here! 
Now I feel like take a listen to my bed. Hope it will tell me sweet
dreams.

Karl
