HP OpenVMS systems - Year 2000

"Various system services, such as SYS$ASCTIM assume that the year 2000 will be a leap year. Although one can never be sure of what will happen at some future time, there is strong historical precedent for presuming that the present Gregorian calendar will still be in affect
by the year 2000. Since we also hope that VMS will still be around by
then, we have chosen to adhere to these precedents."

LOL. You have to read this. Never ask a DEC engineer what's wrong with the clock.
