Hey Rob!

More BS?  The only ones I see following the control line strategy have done absolutely nothing for the backwards compatibilty cause, and in at least two cases make a bad situation even worse.  However with a true fix, such as a ISO-8601 compatible datetime stamp, one of those cases becomes redundant and can be safely ignored without any detrimental effects.  Mind you that is true today given that is exactly what I have been doing since about 1997-ish.  Having said that I do believe a true fix was the proper way to proceed since at least 2002 when the two digit year was officially declared obsolete in digital communications.

Life is good,
Maurice
