starting just before 23:58 ending just after 00:01:00 Notice he says ``Coordinated Universal Time'' and after ``Time'' there's a single second empty of clicks At the end of the 23:59 minute, there's two seconds empty. (Saves you counting to 60.) The beep is on the zero second, the the click is omitted for seconds 29 and 59 (and, when there's a leap second, 23:60). -- Ron Hardin On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk. |
