That would make sense, & the date of the new year changes occasionally to
accommodate another corporate leader's desire to cash in on it & try to outdo
the competition from another angle, as they've sewn up the original?
I skip the hoopla, go to bed early on 31/12, & if I wake up the next day & all
is gone, I'll just go back to bed. (I started that bit for Y2K & kept it as I
like it)
