Calling all geeks: we are nearing 1234567890 seconds from the time when the Unix clock started ticking at midnight on 1 January 1970. This is almost as exciting as the turn of the new millenium, and double that with the fact it will fall on Friday 13 of this month, at 23:31:30 GMT. We're watching the countdown here in the office, though I'll probably be at home for the big event.
