100 Seconds To Midnight

It's called the Doomsday Clock. It's a symbol, a model which measures the likelihood of a man-made global catastrophe. It was created in 1947, set at 7 minutes to midnight, and is assessed every January to determine how close we are to our own doom. It's been changed 23 times since then, the longest gap was 17 minutes in 1991. The shortest gap is 100 seconds, set yesterday.

I don't worry about the Doomsday Clock. We've been on a collision course with oblivion since the day that God created Adam and turned him loose in the Garden of Eden...
