// Description: displays the amount of time until the "dateFuture" entered below.
// NOTE: the month entered must be one less than current month. ie; 0=January, 11=December
// NOTE: the hour is in 24 hour format. 0=12am, 15=3pm etc
// format: dateFuture = new Date(year,month-1,day,hour,min,sec)
// example: dateFuture = new Date(2003,03,26,14,15,00) = April 26, 2003 - 2:15:00 pm
dateFuture = new Date(2008,11,31,23,23,59);
// TESTING: comment out the line below to print out the "dateFuture" for testing purposes
//document.write(dateFuture +"
