No More Leap Second?
WerewulfX writes "CNN reports: "In a phenomenon that has scientists puzzled, the Earth is right on schedule for a fifth straight year." Update yeah, this is a repost. Whatever- it's a holiday. Nothing else to post :)

Those poor souls who are born on that second aren't going to have a birthday. T_T
Slashdot dupes are, as always, right on time!

the dupe second?
I want to delete my account but Slashdot doesn't allow it.
Who says that the extra second wasn't just deja vu? I know that I could have sworn I saw this post before.
Will we see more el ninjo effects
I hope so! El Ninjo is the bad-assest Mexican Ninja ever!
this article is soooo last year
Spare me please. You all are the biggest bunch of need-something-to-whine-about babies I have seen in a good long time. So what if something was double posted? It takes half a second to scan the headline and realize that its a repeat. You take more time crawling all over each other to be the first to whine/complain/joke about the repeated story. For God sakes, ignore the post if your time is so precious! "HELLO? What is the problem? I doubt I'll donate to Slashdot again!" That is the saddest sentence I have ever had the misfortune of reading. Slashdot pours all kinds of blessings upon us geeks daily and you refuse to contribute BECAUSE A STORY WAS REPEATED? GOD FORBID! Burn them at the stake! They have wasted your precious half of a second! Seriously folks, cry me a river.

Sure there is. You could post about how the Stardust probe is about to enter a comet's tail, or perhaps India's plans for a hypersonic plane, or even the chnaging face of offshore programming...
