Oh, gawd...They just get more ridiculous...From the same article...

>>>All the talk of the millennium centers on the bad things that might happen to all of us. When we should be looking for reasons to be hopeful about reaching a significant milestone in the history of humankind, we're consumed with anxiety. And not because of war or disease or hunger. Rather we're consumed with fears about what harm our everyday appliances will do to us.<<<
