I have always wanted to ask if switching to (and indeed adopting), the Jewish Calendar (currently approaching the end of the year 5758), would cure instantly this over-rated Y2K problem. Or, we could always go to the Darwinist Clock, (I believe that depending on the standard, (i.e. B.C. = Before Cro-Magnon 40,000 years ago or A.D. = After Dinosaurs which would make it between 70 to 220 million years ago). However, it seems that with the Darwinistic Clock we would run into the same "zeroes problem". (unless we would pick a random number, say the year 6,666) It seems that the Jewish Calendar is the better viable option since that would leave us with 908 years before the year 6,666 (for those interested in the sport of grub). Anyway, just my opinion. Z.
