Heh. Looks like a -1 on a datetime format using the 1900 epoch.
Though I laughed even more with a lot of sites (and some BBS's) that used 2-digit dates. Their own "Y2K" bug consisted in 2000 being marked as 100, 2001 as 101 ... so you'd find stuff like Last logged in on 13/02/106.
SyncEdit still does say something like "26 Jun108" instead of the correct date, it is a editor used in Synchronet and Synchronet is still being used today (I sometimes log in to X-BIT to play Word Warp or sometimes for other reasons as well).
They know about the Y2K bug.[code]Y2K Patch
~~~~~~~~~
There is a Y2K bug in all known versions of SyncEdit where the year 2000 is
displayed as 100, causing the status bar to wrap and making the program
unusable. I've released a group of binary-edited SyncEdit executables (for
all located versions) that works around this problem: the year is still
displayed as 100, but the status bar no-longer wraps. The file that includes
these patched files is SYEDTY2K.ZIP and can be downloaded via Telnet/Zmodem or
FTP from vert.synchro.net.[/code]
