That's too late! Isn't the world going to end midnight Greenwich Mean Time? Or will it end just one time zone at a time? A better plan might be to leap from a plane (no parachute, of course) *EXACTLY* as it crossed the International Date Line, one second before midnight. Would you then be able to track back and forth into and out of the end of the world? Here in Asia, it is already tomorrow. Does that mean that this useless thread will last one day longer or end one day sooner? ______________________________________________________ Clem Akins (aka clema@informix.com) Informix Software, Inc (Standard disclaimers apply) International Technical Support Last seen: Spending a balmy winter in Singapore!
