Today is December the 32nd....

Remember all the fuss about the Y2K bug?  For those who don't, this was the theory that computers would not be able to cope with the changeover from the last day of 1999 to the first of January 2000 and would crash - with possible disasterous results. Bit of a storm in a teacup in the end, although what might have happened if nobody had thought about it is anybody's guess.  Anyway, this came to mind the other day when I learned that NASA steered clear of shuttle launches towards the end of a year, because the onboard computers didn't automatically recognise the change from one year to the next and might malfunction.  All those millions of dollars and they couldn't come up with a decent software calendar?
