Revision as of 13:35, 7 August 2005 by Superdude99 (talk | contribs)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)UK's WWII debt to the US
December 31 The United Kingdom pays off its 4.336 billion (thousand million, not million million) dollar (US) World War II debts to the Government of the United States of America.
I have stated which meaning of "billion" was meant according to Misplaced Pages policy (billion), but the user who contributed this may not have been aware of this. It doesn't seem to be anywhere else on Misplaced Pages. Is this correct? Brianjd
37 gubernatorial elections?
Christine Gregoire, governor of Washington, may have her contested 2004 election invalidated in time for a mid-term election in 2006. So, in all actuality, there may be 36 or 37 gubernatorial elections in 2006. Velvetsmog 09:40, 10 May 2005 (UTC)
Number of the Beast
Removed this preposterous statement:
- January 6 - The date, written out in standard international style, is 6-1-06. See the new Number of the Beast.
Actually, this date would be written 2006-01-06 in standard international style. The Number of the Beast is 666, not 6106. One reference to such numerological nonsense is more than enough, and the article already mentions 2006-06-06 as 'Beast day'.

Predicted Deaths?
I was wondering if it would be possible if there was a section on the page for predicting possible deaths in 2006? There are a couple of webpages dedicated to this, but it might work to have one here. Of course, death is a squeamish subject for a lot of people, so I don't know this would go, but I just wanted to see other people's thoughts.

maddox?
Maddox, owner of The Best Page in the Universe is due out with a book in March of this year.
This seems WAY to trivial to be here, there are LOADS of books scheduled to come out in 2006, so why should only this one be on here? I'm pretty sure that the majority of the people who read this page do not know who maddox is, and simply couldn't care less that this person has a book scheduled to come out (Including me). So I am removing the entry Superdude99
