It's not a song title, it's the time scientists give before we manage to destroy our planet.

I respect the scientists and their opinion but do not forget that in science, a fact is something to be proven... thus, a destruction will be a fact when it can be proven that happened... if you get what i mean.

It actually counts the human stupidity. The lower the bar, the higher the stupidity.

It counts the possibility of a humanly destruction and the ability of us to do it

It counts nothing at all. It is proven by history.

If it was counting something, we would be dead a long time ago. And because we are still not dead, it means that it counts nothing at all.

It counts how close humanity was to an end, but after it happened, just to remember.
