Looks like I get to post the first message dated 2000.

Xdaliclock displays the date as 1-01- 0 when you do
a middle click.  So far, every other app I've checked
that displays the date does so correctly.

Wondering about the websites reported as displaying
the year 19100 (US Naval Observatory among them).
Wouldn't working from a four digit number have been
easier from a programming standpoint anyway?
