Anyone ever wonder why the terrists(tm) don't dump a bunch of poisonous stuff on Times Square? Seems like a good idea to me.........

Who says they're not?
If I were a terrorist, I'd pick a biological disease that is very contagious, but has a long gestation period. That way, by the time anybody realizes they have it, half the east coast has it. :eek:

Well, shit - it can't be 2005 because Billy Idol is performing on Dick Clarks ball-dropping show right now!
Who's next? Flock of Seagulls?

The NYPD probably mobilized its entire force around Times Square. I heard that some guy with an assault rifle was arrested nearby a few hours before the party.

IT was still billed as Dick's Show - regardless of if it were Regis boring the hell out of me or not.
Billy Idol?
WTF is that?
What was his last gig? The Wedding Singer?

It has to do with the rotation of the Earth and the arbitrary position of the International Date Line.
...and I think it's Hawaii that gets New Years Last. I think they're east of the IDL, but I'm not sure.

As long as New York gets it before the rest of the United States that's all that counts. :)

The only way it would be otherwise is if the International Date Line were repositioned somewhere within the United States, and that would make things very odd. Suppose, for example, that the IDL split the Mountain and Central Time Zones. Then, you'd have a situation where it's 2:35 PM, December 31, 2005 in Chicago and 1:35 PM, January 1, 2006 in Denver. Denver would celebrate New Years first and Chicago would celebrate New Years last.
