  • It's 2001 Somewhere

    According to some random guest, it's 2001 in Africa. I didn't know time zones worked that way.

    It's 2001 in the past and unless we change the way we count years at some time in the future it will never be 2001 again.

      Well, even if we change the way we count years in the future, it'll never be 2001 again.

      Because our 2001 is technically 2001 AD, or 2001 CE if you want to be secular.

      If we change up the way we count years in the future, whenever they get to 2001, it'll be a different reckoning of the year. (Post-Diaspora or post-event or something along those lines)

        Maybe someone will establish the Guardia Kingdom and we'll count all over. Though 2001 in this scenario would kinda suck.

          They heard it wrong. It's 5:00 somewhere. That would be 1700 on the 24 hour clock.

            That's supposing we all live through 1999.

                It's 5-something in Europe or someplace when I start drinking... ...soda. Because I don't drink except on special occasions.

                  Well, with me being on East Coast, it's currently 5:38 Central Time. Or if we were on Standard Time, it would be 5:39 here right now.

                  And I'll probably pour a glass in a few after I finish getting my hair set for tonight.

                    I think he meant 20:01, but who knows?

                      My brother says Michigan is 30 years behind the rest of North America, so something similar could explain the issue with Africa.

                          Are they in Ethiopia? Their calendar is about 14 years behind us I think...

                          Ah no,it's only 2006 there... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethiopian_calendar

                          Perhaps they're from an alternate reality where it is still 2001...
