So it's the new year, it's time for people to make resolutions and hope for happiness all year round...right? Well that would be lovely if the
doomsday clock had not just been moved 60 ticks towards midnight. Yes it seems that the possibility of nuclear war, deaths in the millions and basically the complete annihilation of the human race is getting closer. The subliminal clock face currently stands at 11.55pm and has been moved forward because countries such as the USA, China, Israel, India, Iran, Egypt and Pakistan have all failed to limit the production of nuclear weapons and North Korea refusing to cut off the production of nuclear weapons, plus with the erasion of Kim jong-il from the picture his son Kim jong-un his 'out to prove his power son' has taken over, striking fear into the hearts of many.
But should we abide by this clock and realise how close we are to the apocalypse, or so should we just assume that we are safe and that the subliminal clock is as Dr. Manhatten (Jon Osterman) explains, "I would only agree that a symbolic clock is as nourishing to the intellect as a picture of oxygen to a drowning man." in other words it's only as real as we make it...
