Lol, yes that one is great

Also check out this wikipedia entry for unixtime

Unix time - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"In some newer operating systems, time_t has been widened to 64 bits. In the negative direction, this goes back more than twenty times the age of the universe, and so suffices. In the positive direction, whether the approximately 293 billion representable years is truly sufficient depends on the ultimate fate of the universe, but it is certainly adequate for most practical purposes."
