Subject: MEDIA: Thousand year chime
Great article in the Guardian (UK newspaper)

It's about a clock built to last 10,000 years and only chime once every
thousand years (designed by Danny Hillis) to give a wider perspective on the
concept of time. Ironically the article makes me think the Singularity is
coming faster than I might have previously thought :)
