      I joined this forum in 1977, but Wavefunction had to set my join date forward so that he wouldn't have to answer so many awkward questions.

      Oscar winning climate scientist Al Gore invented the internet in 1968. This site was one of the internet pioneers, but originally it was a forum for hillbilly surfers who have sex with trees.
      How do you know you are not dreaming right now?

      In the press release for the Internet's introduction by Al Gore in 1968, in Latin America, the man spoke halting Latin, because he forgot to brush up on the language before venturing into this foreign land.

      computers store the date & time as a single number
      every second, adds one

      0 = Unix Epoch (midnight, 1st Jan 1970)

      December 31st 1969 = minus one, Unix Time

      Coincidentally,
      a lot of functions return minus one as a fail code, if something went wrong

      My guess is, at some point (this sites gone through 3 different forum packages) something failed during a conversion, and plastered a bogus dates on affected posts



      If anybody ever really wants to make me feel stupid, all you have to do is say some shit like that. You have no idea just how ancient Chinese that language looks to me.
      How do you know you are not dreaming right now?
