I seem to recall that there is a simple formula for converting a
date in MMDDYY format to YYMMDD; i.e. something like:

	YYMMDD_date = MMDDYY_date * some_number

(maybe not quite that simple).  Did I just dream this up, or is
there really such a formula.

And, (the obvious question), if there is one, can someone e-mail
it to me?
