teferi, you are like the biggest nerd I know, which is saying a lot. I mean, you posted an entry about people posting about the leap second.

I am pleased to say that you are the only person on my friends list that mentioned it on LiveJournal.

But I do have friends that asked how I would spend my extra second...

I spent half an hour reading about how Unix time deals with leap seconds and the pros and cons of making Unix time a representation of UTC rather than an exact tally of number of seconds since the epoch. Does that count?
