title: How can I find out the number of seconds since 1970 using DateTime in C#
body: <p>I am currently using this code:</p>
  
  <pre><code> var stringSecsNow = DateTime.UtcNow.Subtract(new DateTime(1970, 1, 1)).TotalSeconds.ToString();
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But is there some other way. I seem to recall in another language that there was an easier way to do this?</p>
