People weren't thinking code from 1960s would still be in use to 2000
so you had a "Y2K scare" - didn't really pan out to be a REAL problem.
Say that somehow humans do keep things going for another 7000 years -
I don't think comparing a 40 year span to a 7000 year span is
realistic. Did anyone actually see code from 1960 in 2000? Or is that
like th eY2K thing mostly stories heard from someone who heard from
someone?

Anyway :)
I ended up deciding to use the time stamp (mktime) to compare dates.
