only when represented as integer, the 'binary' time will be 1001001100101100000001011010010.
the real big epoch event is in the year 2038
during that year the binary time will count up to reach
1111111111111111111111111111100
1111111111111111111111111111101
1111111111111111111111111111110
1111111111111111111111111111111
and the 32 bit integer assigned will reach its maximum decimal value of 2147483648, then the next count is 0000000000000000000000000000000
fun for embedded systems.....

I wouldn't say "fast approaching". The seconds don't tick faster than before... ;-)
But yes, it is getting closer by the second...
