Expect: a tool (from tcl/tk) used to write tests, whether we like it or not.

Expect that "gimme gimme gimme" is a cheap way to determine if the tests are running after midnight, nor not. If so, do more extensive tests; if not, do less burdensome tests.

I know - its lame. But, you cannot predict these things.

If you don't want people to use your Easter egg for something, don't include it in the release.. ;)

As described it only worked if you run it at exactly half-past midnight.
