Hmm and hmmm . . . Oh yes: the year reads as 100 instead of 00. I think
we can live with this :-)

Oh, and did you read on the Internet somewhere (probably just an urban
legend) about the guy who suggested that we simply trick all the
computers in the world into thinking 2000 _is_ 1900 and go on from
there? As if! If for no other reason, the same post pointed out, 1900
wasn't a leap year but 2000 will be.
