Al Gore was on to something when he released "An Inconvenient Truth" a while back, but he did miss one little thing. Scientists believe we are at the 11:55 hour of what they refer to as a symbolic "Doomsday Clock," moving the hands two minutes closer to midnight from its previous position at 11:53. The clock was moved forward amid fears over what they describe as "a second nuclear age" prompted largely by newly nuclear nations like Iran and North Korea. They fear these countries, one day, could ultimately have the rest of the world in an atomic standoff situation prompting a nuclear apocalypse. But with all the worry and tension in the world, maybe it's time we took the time to tell our husband, wife and/or kids how much they mean. It couldn't hurt.
