There's nothing like literally seeing the seconds of your life disappear in front of your eyes to make you realize the time to act is now. Of course, since I have 921,747,745 seconds left, as of the time I started typing this sentence, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to surf the Web for a few minutes longer....
