And remember to always protect your eyes when your digitial clock turns to 10:08.....the time when the most segments in your clock are lit.

Is this the official "live thread?" Will there be a countdown?

I actually posted to you because you inadvertently supplied the answer to an oddity in my life. I ALWAYS look at the clock (digital...across the room in the kitchen) at 10:08. I've always found it strange that I do that BECAUSE MY BIRTHDAY IS 10/8; it was kind of freaking me out!

Maybe it's because of a slight increase in light in the dark kitchen....HMMMM.

Queue Twilight Zone music! Actually, your newfound explanation makes sense. Must be a huge relief. Or an anti-climatic letdown. Not sure which.
