31 December 2006 - arbitrary time unit

< yesterday -- tomorrow >

The Narrow Waist of Time

Another arbitrary time unit has passed, and all of us who are still here are still here, so it’s time to celebrate! The hourglass figure approaches, and there’s nothing for it but to to listen for the silence of the blams. Or something similar. In the spirit of arbitrariness, you could consider that we are moving from one year with three prime factors to another, which won’t happen again until some time later. And that’s all we know of the science of the hams.

clue:

2006 = 2 * 17 * 59
2007 = 3 * 3 * 223

take oh take this clue away
