Melkam Addis Amet (Happy New Year)

Happy Millenium - if you happen to be Ethiopian the new millenium starts at midnight. Ethiopia alone retains a different dating for the birth of Christ, that was agreed in the 4th Century. Just about everyone else concerned agreed a revised date in the 6th Century CE.
