Do you feel more caught-up?...

...because if you do, it's probably because according to the BBC, you're going to be one second closer to being on-time than you were on Saturday.

(If you're sufficiently geeky that you would even want to know the real, detailed reason why we need leap seconds in our lives, the answer can be found here at slashdot.org.)

Of course, for folk like me, who are living in a plus/minus 5 minutes world, leap seconds are in the "who the ---- cares?" category. But it's fun to mention, anyway.

Happy New Year.
