Still?!?!... So, this year, due to "normal" adjustments in keeping our calendar in sync with the moon (and no doubt the sun too), 2005 will exist for an extra second this year. See: http://msnbc.msn.com/id/8476418/ The clocks will read 11:59:60 before ticking over to 12:00:00 So... How will that affect us? If your machines are not time-sync'ed with a clock that runs off the atomic clock, then you'll be a second faster than everyone else, effectively opening a rip in the space time continuum whereby you will do things 1 second before everybody else. The world will turn topsy turvy: Lions will lie down with lambs; rappers will remove their bling, stop their killing of each other and embrace country music; cousins will marry; and anarchy will reign. We're through the looking glass here, people... What does it mean for you if you don't have your servers and PC's time-sync properly? Ultimately, the molecules and atoms in your body will have sped up, thus increasing the speed of the protons spinning around the nucleus in each atom. This increase in speed and kinetic energy is enough to displace at least one of these protons from their orbit, triggering what is effectively a chain reaction in your body that would complete in a massive nuclear explosion - meaning IT geeks all around the world will spontaneous combust, taking out friends, family and complete strangers, at 12:00:00 January 1 2006... If they don't ensure their servers and PC's are set to account for this extra second. Just something to brighten your 3rd last day on earth (if you don't ensure your computers are set to allow for the extra second)... ;) Steve Molkentin (themolk).
