I've gotten a two-hour extention....two hours and one second, I suppose. I'll be delivering pizza New Years' Eve so I will have to celebrate with my co-workers on California time, at 2am.

I think I remember one year when just before New Years, the countdown lasted an extra second. The article said the last time it occured was 2005 so maybe that was it.

It's already happened (2005). The only difference is Dick hasn't been seen in quite a while

A second isn't bad. The Greeks had to "..add an intercalary month to every other year, that the seasons may come round at the right time." (Solon, quoted by Herodotus)
