Mr Clarke has long been one of my favourite writers, both of fiction and non-fiction alike. Global communications has and will continue to allow humanity to make the next "big step" towards a better world. He also is better informed than most of the mass media on when the new millennium actually begins. ;)

Person of the MILLENIUM??? Come on

I have always enjoyed his novels and I marvel at his plethera of ideas. He has really inspired me.

Hi, Did Arthur Clarke really say that the millennium does not begin until 2001? Can you tell me where and when he said this? Many thanks.

he is smart

it's a pun
