..he's trying to tell you he's 68 years old.  ;o)

..forgot a knoppix cd in a box until June last summer when I needed it
and found myself wondered about that green light, it had been on since 
18:02:48 on Nov 17'th 2005.  Had it been on a cluster kernel, I could 
have carried it across on a laptop past an arrgh 2 hour grid shutdown 
at 23:55 on January 16'th 2007.
