Q: What decides Armageddon?
A: Timezone


I'm not one for the character-improving mails, that generally worm their way to your inbox despite your strict vigilance. And a swift kick in the butt, to the nether regions of Trash, is all they get, if I catch them sneaking in. But this particular sentence caught my eye, simply because of its sense of humor.

"Don't worry about the world coming to an end today......It's already tomorrow in Australia."
-- Charles Schultz

Er..but Australia is still vulnerable, isn't it? But this Schultz chap may be an American, in whose imagination, 'world' comprises nothing but the 50 states and the honorary 51st state, England.
