<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">NMGLUGers,
Just caught up with this interesting issue on the brief
history of time: <a

moz-do-not-send="true">debian-takes-proactive-steps-to-address-y2k38</a></div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">It seems as
if January 1, 1970 will cause a counting error in 2038. An
interesting thought, as many of us deal with time and counting
and who can forget the Windows issue on Y2K? It was a fun
night, New Year's Eve 1999-2000. I never had so many
supervisors attending my midnight hours as on that night. A
real "Night Manager" only has the power to declare when a
property moves to the next day. (It's based on when all the
bills are ready.) Luckily there was no system failure back
then.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Looks like
people won't have to worry in 2038, but you never know.</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">See you at
Glug this week? There may be other reasons some of us are
"marking time." Thank you, Ted P<br>
