Jeff -

The Julian date of 09999, if your program still has only 2 digits for a year, is as overblown as the problem that was supposed to happen at the beginning of the year with programs that looked at the year 99 as an end of file or error condition.

Strong agreement.

Very old habit. Easy to track down & fix.
