The famous speaking clock everyone used to dial to get the time or just to hear it is ending tomorrow. After tomorrow you will get the message saying the number is not in service/use. AT&T is going to be freeing up the 767 numbers after a year tomorrow.

Call it up, get your nostalgia in and record it. Preserve the past. Hopefully AT&T will put this speaking clock and its voice in a museum or something.

See Sig...
Well that's a huge PITA (especially when you take full advantage of the clr_cmos/clr_rtc/etc. jumper as often as I do... >_<). Now what do we use besides looking up the time on one of the time server websites?
