I'll keep that in mind the next time I use my Mac to time travel. : )
Since, as written, frenchVanillaDottedDate uses "current date," this
situation should never happen in a production environment. If this is
happening to you, I suggest changing your battery and resetting your clock.
You got me thinking, so I tested dates going the other way. When the year
hits 29941, it starts doing some *really* weird stuff. But by then my 56
exahertz G876 with 96 zettabytes of RAM and 800 yottabyte
magneto-neuro-optical storage device will be so cool, I won't care about such
trivial errors.
