BTW, the end of time is somewhere in 2038, when the number of seconds
since 1/1/70 overflows a 32 bit word. It will be like Y2K all over
again. I view it as an employment windfall just before I retire.

What to do?
Should I start panicking now? Or later?
Worried of HoveBryan,
It seems to me entirely likely that the end of the material world is
nigher than nigh. Not to mind. No matter.
Keep a towel handy, and don't panic.
My favorite end-of-the world skit is from "Beyond the Fringe," one of
many delightful comic inventions from the UK. This is a good deal
funnier when heard, but it's amusing when read, too:
The End of the World

I may be at least partially responsible for hastening the world's end.
According to Dr. Venkman in "Ghostbusters," one of the signs of the
End is "dogs and cats living together." Here's part of my small
contribution to the situation:

For the Final Occasion, I have written a smallish po (which, as I have
detailed elsewhere on GA, is like a poem, only less so).
LIVE RECKONING
After the novae dim, as the last stars unshine,
After a light-streaked romp in the meteor shower,
The sun will snap off in its final hour
As strands of all dimensions intertwine.
DNA spiraling backwards, countercurled,
Unwinds itself like a child's spinning top,
And time, that takes survey of all the world,
Must have a stop.
All good things must end.
All bad and ordinary things, as well.
Things have no meaning now, as we transcend
The shell,
The nautilus unchambered, free,
Yet still distinguishable from the sea.
==================================================
Goodbye forever, or until next we meet (whichever comes first).
