   From Slashdot:

"Saturday, January 19th 2008 will mark the beginning of the 30-year countdown to the Y2K38 bug, when Unix time will overflow 32 bits. Some 30-year loan calculation software might start having problems with this over the weekend."
Joy.

	That reminds me of the story about the religious nut and the gun nut. They both lived in Idaho and were neighbors. They got to talking one day. The gun nut said to the religious nut "Aint it funny you got all that canned food and no guns and I got all these guns and no food". The religious nut moved out the next day.
