<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Some odd coincidences
here .. Notable Danish scientist Tyco Bache died in 1601. I reckon he would be
upset that the fine astronomical data that he carefully observed and recorded
on his scrolls to help understand the orbits of planets and measurement of time
would be rejected as outside the user range. <br>
<br>
Everybody will become primative looking by the 4th millenium. The "Planet
of the Apes" was set in the year 3978 and the cartoon series
"Thundarr the Barbarian" takes place in 3994. Lyrics in the pop Zager
and Evans song hint that "In the year 4545. Ain't gonna need your teeth,
won't need your eyes. You won't find a thing to chew. Nobody's gonna look at
you."<br>
<br>
I'll take out retirement shares in banana stocks and settle for looking very
old and ugly.<br>
