Hey, I know that most unices will be Y2K compatible.  They use time_t to
keep time, blah, blah....  But my question is the `date` command.  Date
will only let you set the date with a 2-digit year.  How will date
handle 00?  Will it know to make it 2000, or will it use .....I just
tried it....it DOES make the date 2000.  That answers my question.  Hats
off, again, to the team at FreeBSD.  You guys think of everything.
