    Yes Slacker007, I read that. It's 2.5 months still to cross 2020 and thus might be too early - it is for me. (again, depends on person to person: tomorrow is also future and so is 2022)

      Personally, I'd be happy if the last 4 years were irrevocably erased from the temporal stream.

        With all that's going on, it's only going to get worse. Maybe ten or twenty years from now, 2020 will be "the good old days."

                  Don't be too optimistic. Depending on how the future turns out, we may find ourselves looking back on 2020 with nostalgic pleasure. :wtf: You heard it here first: - The alien invasion of 2021. - The worldwide volcanic episode that began in 2021. - The great EMP reset. - The neutrino event. In no particular order. ;-)

                                I'd be happy if the last 106 years were erased. Perhaps the second time round, the Europeans power might use the brains God supposedly gave some of them, and avoid both World Wars.

                                        ... or even worse : you're forced to use Lotus Notes, Mobile surfing, tab spacing, and VB6.0 due to year 2021 bug.

                                        Do not escape reality : improve reality !
