Like when you used to get all excited in school about the calendar reading something like 9-9-99, but in Nerdese.

Seconds, hours, days, months and years are too tricky for most computer systems to add and subtract in so they represent time in a rawer form (like the number of seconds since 1/1/1970 0:00:00) internally and translate it into our time as needed.

Actually that's milliseconds (EDIT: in java.util.Date, not *nix time_t), but anyway, Happy 1234567890 Epoch!
