C news accepts 4 and generates 4. Some site along the way mangled your 4 digit date back down to two digits, chopping off the day of the week in the process. -- Msen Edward Vielmetti /|--- moderator, comp.archives emv@msen.com original: Path: news-server.csri.toronto.edu!utzoo!henry From: henry@zoo.toronto.edu (Henry Spencer) Subject: Re: warning to all sinners in regard to current C News patches Date: Fri, 29 Mar 1991 04:06:56 GMT at ox.com: From: henry@zoo.toronto.edu (Henry Spencer) Newsgroups: news.software.b Date: 29 Mar 91 04:06:56 GMT Path: ox.com!caen!uakari.primate.wisc.edu!samsung!rex!wuarchive!usc!rpi!news-server.csri.toronto.edu!utzoo!henry
