  We've already got more than two thousand years of human history under our
belts, Ken. The clock started tickin' before the year 0 A.D.

  I hear that there may be a severe shortage of champagne on the store
shelves come the New Year. I guess I'll add a couple of bottles to my Y2K
stockpile of canned goods. I've also noticed that Price Club/Costco has a
huge supply of Coleman stoves, the two-burner type, normally used for
camping. Maybe I'll pick one of those babies up, too. Not that I'm expecting
a year-end catastrophe, mind you - I would've needed these items in the
future, anyway <s>.
