So, the universe turned 6000 today. At least according to
James Ussher, archbishop of Armagh (don't bother trying to correct him, he figured this all out in 1650).
Of course, what with calendar adjustments and all, the actual 6000th anniversary of the world's glorious creation by God himself was in 1997. But don't let that stop you.
I wonder if this has anything to do with the Red Sox being in the world series. End of the world, etc. At least, end of this area of boston.
