Well, I couldn't tell the Rocky sequels apart without them. I hope the NFL is smart enough to adopt the Windows year scheme (Super Bowl 2007) before Super Bowl LXXXVIII rolls around.

Actually, I occasionally wish I remembered how to read Roman numerals, for instance when I am trying to figure out the year an old book was published. Fortunately there is a website that will translate roman numerals, but I wish I could read them. There's not anything wrong with knowing things other than what we use every day.
