The ULTIMATE debt clock to end all debt clocks

It's got everything. Awesome, in a sad sort of way.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

All those numbers... they're all numberwang!
If I'm just aching this can't go on
I came from chasing dreams to feel alone
There must be changes, miss to feel strong
I really need lifе to touch me

This makes me a sad panda... :sigh:
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

I was wondering about that, too.
In my world of sleepers, everything will be erased.
I'll be your religion, your only endless ideal.

Probably because personal debt is going down faster than government debt is rising. Still a lot of big numbers in the debt sections.......
