New Years--important information
They are adding an extra second at 23:59:60 on New Year's Eve, due to fluctuations in the earth's rotation.
Please, for the love of Pete, do not embarrass yourself, by going off half-cocked a second too early. No one is going to buy the excuse that you "didn't know" about the leap second. |
