2005: A Look Behind and A Look Ahead

It's the end of 2005. If you're in Australia, it's already 2006.

At this time of year it's customary for people to look back on the events that shaped the year past. It's also customary for people to look ahead to what 2006 may have in store for us.

So, I'm inviting you to tell me what your hopes are for 2006.

And while you're at it, tell me what happened in 2005 that you're especially thankful for.
