“Did the NYT really say millenniums?”

“Millenniums” is not incorrect, but “millennia” is preferred as the plural of “millennium.”

Most likely more people would understand the meaning of “millenniums” than “millennia”, and I suspect the NYT is having to gradually dumb-down their writing to keep pace with the declining IQ of their declining readership.

They got distracted with Star Wars.

Here's the two Millenniums.

I have a Millenia (broke down, of course) in the yard.
If I buy another one for parts, I’ll have two Milleniums................
