Yesterday I published a URL with a short Vancouver walk.  Several of
you noticed that my e-mail message was dated December 31, 1969.

This happens to be one of our small Y2K glitches.  An interface
program between different e-mail systems wasn't prepared to handle the
AAMMDD (A0 = 2000) date format that one e-mail system was producing.
That bug has been quashed and this e-mail message should have a date
header that says January 3, 2000.

I expect that we'll all see numerous such small issues over the
coming month or two (or three or four).  But it doesn't appear that
anyone's e-mail reader rejected the message with the early date, so
for the most part things worked.

Cheers,
