It appears to me that if one wants to make progress in mathematics, one should study the masters and not the pupils. - Niels Henrik Abel.

I doubt God or Satan run by the Georgian calandar, and if they did, we have/had nothing to worry about anyway. The date is the 6/6/2006, 06 is short for 2006 but it's not the date. The guys back in the in the year 6AD on the other hand ...

only 4660 years, 1 month and 1 day to go!

Listening to the radio on my way to work this morning, they were talking about this subject and asking listeners to call in and tell them if they saw any 666's.  One person called in and said, "Yea, I was driv....AHHHHH" and hangs up.  He later called back saying it was a joke.
