I would like to add a little something to a thread, which, from my point of
view, is not in the right place :

To think that 01/01/2000 is a particular date (or 01/01/2001 or whatever),
you have to believe in Christ
you have to believe he was born on a particular date aso

but you also have to believe in the decimal system, personally i will party
all the night on the 0x1st January of the year 0x1000 (the hexadecimal
system is the one I prefer), and you're all invited, the drinks will be on
me!

Philippe

(sorry for my loosy english)

I guess it all boils down to the number of fingers one possesses.
Binary, anyone?

Easy for you to say, since you know quite well that none of us will be
around on 0x1000 A.D. (if medicine doesn't make some real progress *really*
soon)...
How about given a party at 0x0800 A.D. instead? Then at least some of us
would have a chance of attending...

No problem Johannes,

Just keep the last dance for me (I'll be 98, and starting my third teen
crisis !), at that very moment nobody would mind two men dancing together (I
hope)
