The folks over at/. [slashdot.org] picked up on this too. (And got rather silly, as expected. PerlMonks act as if Y2K didn't happen because of the hype, instead of not happening because we fixed it first, which bugs me, but...) I rather liked their suggestion [slashdot.org] of celebrating Fibonacci [wolfram.com] day this summer, rather than waiting for the octal [slashdot.org] date or 1234567890 [slashdot.org]. However in Network standard byte order, "BILL" o'clock is coming up soon, I like that, followed shortly by "Bill" o'clock.
$ perl -le 'for (qw{BILL B
-- Bill
# I had a sig when sigs were cool
use Sig;
