Dave,
There was a discussion on IP some time ago about the Leap Second, but
I haven't seen this item go by: we're about to have one... Happy
New Year!

WAIT A SEC FOR LEAP INTO 2006
Get ready for a minute with 61 seconds. Scientists are delaying the
start of
2006 by the first "leap second" in seven years, a timing tweak meant
to make
up for changes in the Earth's rotation....
