Frank,
Can I ask if you have been in isolation for the last three years??? I
thought that by now EVERYONE in the world, from Ulan Bator to John
O'Groats to Podunk Ohio to Ushuaia realised that there is NO world
after the Sydney 2000 olympics!!!
Looks like Oxford University Press was just a bit more successful at
predicting the future that we previously thought! And you thought it
was just a ploy to get you to buy the next edition.
But maybe, just maybe, I have been so brainwashed by our fearless
political leaders that even I (who loathes the olympics with a
passion) have come to believe the rhetoric. Frank, are you really
telling me that there WILL (gasp, gasp) be life after 2000? That
there will be an Easter in 2001???
I am not sure if you have made my day or have stressed me so much
that I will need to seek psychiatric help to cope with what may well
be an epiphany.
