If you all notice, there is now a big clock located at the bottom of the forum.   Could be interesting to follow down the road.

Sure does OPEN ones Eyes there! Whoa! When you see whats actually going on and how fast?..like babies being born, how much gas is left in reserve, and the CO2, how many trees are being cut down ....along with all else? Kinda make one feel insignificant in this world...it all boils down to a matter of Time..and it sure is ticking fast!

That clock is the best "reality check" I know of that's around. Just spending a minute taking in each number gives pause for concern. I'd call it super depressing. When I see how much is being lost and how much destruction is being created in real time, it makes me want to go live in a cave. Not a pretty sight. I'd say thanks, Albert, if I weren't so depressed.

Looks like the running population is going to hit all six's today.  John Gardner would love this one.

Boy, like watching the life of our earth going down the tubes. I just hope my child and future children will have a good life. After that I'm not sure I would want to be here on earth.

that is correct. you can also click on the month ratio and it will show the hours for the month, Day ratio will show for the day and "now" will start like a stop watch.

Nice surprise Albert :)

I like the "Clocca"

Sure beats the flow of sand in an hourglass, incense sticks, and candles to keep track of time.

The world population should be a 6's in about 90 minutes from now.

Get rid of the clock, it's annoying!  It's not even accurate!  This is some futile attempt by some tree hugging liberal to try to make me feel guilty.  Notice that the world population did not even slow down in the past week!  Now I feel like going hunting for the spotted owl in my BIG SUV.  And when I get back the wife and I will make plans to have more babies.
