Re: Time goes on



And what does this have to do with gnome?

And what about 21:12 21/12 2112 ????? (December 21, 2112 at 21:12)

  Believe it or not but 8.02pm on February 20 this year will be a historic

It will not be marked by the chiming of any clocks or the ringing of

  happen which has not occurred for 1,001 years and will never happen
again.
As the clock ticks over from 8.01pm on Wednesday, February 20, time
will,
  for sixty seconds only, read in perfect symmetry 2002, 2002, 2002, or to
  be more precise - 20:02, 20/02, 2002.
This historic event will never have the same poignancy as the 11th hour
of
  the 11th day of the 11th month which marks Armistice Day, but it is an
  event which has only ever happened once before, and is something which
  will never be repeated.
The last occasion that time read in such a symmetrical pattern was long
  before the days of the digital watch and the 24-hour clock - at 10.01am
on
  January 10, 1001.
And because the clock only goes up to 23.59, it is something that will
  never happen again.

I didn't have to by my radio from a specific company to listen
to FM, why doesn't that apply to the Internet (anymore...)?
