MKH – I knew that if we kept this podcast going long enough we’d eventually get a sensible and knowledgeable comment. Thank you…

Everyone else, take note!

As far as I can figure, Roman-era archivists counted the founding of Rome (750-ish BC) as “year zero”, and generally applied that convention until the Julian system was implemented in 46 BC, which in turn was replaced by the Christocentric Gregorian calendar. Oddly, and more to the point, most Romans didn’t number the passing years, they named them after the two Consuls who were in office at the start of the inaugural month (eventually January).

BTW, excellent show, guys. I was expecting mostly chaos with an even chance of carnage, but it was completely calm and convivial. Downright Canadian, actually.

Sime – I know. When I met Cliff for the first time I didn’t think there’d be a second podcast..

Idiot 1 – Why don’t we just wait until he’d old enough and let him decide?

Thanks for sharing this special occasion with us chaps.

Oh, and to repeat, re: Ben, you really can keep him if you want. Probably not though…
