Interestingly, Jacob Zabicky's messages appear to come in 1904 according to
my Macintosh (as quoted immediately following). I know this is the date that
is the beginning of the Universe according to the Motorola CPUs under System
7.x. Is the beginning of the Universe 1970 according to other CPUs, such as
older Intels? Does this mean Jacob's (or his server's) clock is set to a
time before the beginning of the Universe on our individual systems, which
then default to the first known day in the history of time? Also, only those
messages from Jacob.Zabicky$##$uab.es and not from zabicky$##$bgumail.bgu.ac.il,
which appear OK. I don't really need a reply; these are just observations.

  Hi!

Just a curiosity,

I am always receiving your messages in a random place in
my mail box due to incorrect date in the header.
Or, probably, it is something wrong with our mailserver.

Are you still suffer from Y2K problem ?

Valentine.
