WE CONTROL THE VERTICAL, WE CONTROL THE TICKING OF YOUR CLOCK....

....at precisely 23:59:60 at Greenwich, England, on New Year's Eve, there will be a one-second void before the onset of midnight and the start of the New Year.

A timeless void, exactly one second long. A space in the continuum: no time; no forward chronological momentum; no measurement of our passage through the universe. Exactly one second of nothingness. An irreversible split between 2008 and 2009. Emptiness, everlasting, with no guarantee that the universe will start again on the other side. The void. The vaccuum. A glimpse into the other side of consciousness.

Nothing.

Exactly one second long.

Now I have somewhere to store my appreciation of Adam Sandler's film career! :)
