Hey Nigel,

That's not very nice at all, but get this:

tell date "Thursday, December 31, 1846 23:59:59" to ¬
	return its {weekday, day, month, year, hours, minutes, seconds, date string}

--> 1st run in Script Debugger
--> {Friday, 1, January, 1847, 0, 1, 14, "Thursday 31 December 1846"}

--> 2nd run in Applescript Editor
--> {Thursday, 31, December, 1846, 23, 50, 35, "Thursday, December 31, 1846"}

--> Subsequent runs in either are identical to the 2nd item.

I just checked in Smile, and it reports the same results you got.

I'll try again the next time I reboot if I remember.

> In a separate development, all dates from 1 January 3514 00:00:00 on, when compiled or derived from specifiers, are now transposed to the 20th or 21st centuries:

No anomaly on this one.  I get the same.

Take Care,
