Millennium, what Millenium????



Of course it is not a millenium at all if you use a non Gregorian
calendar

5760 in the Hebraic calendar
2544 in the Buddhist calendar
2000 in the Gregorian calendar
1716 in the Copt calendar
1420 in the Islamic calendar
1378 in the Persian calendar
Dragon year in the Chinese calendar


> The world is a clock and this clock needs a watchmaker
        - Voltaire

A nice humorous piece about this millenium silliness:
