Hi Chris,

Even more strange is that even for us big- and little-endian types (as
opposed to US 'beggars simple description' types ~:) it's palindromic in
more than one time format:

US                20:02 02/20/2002
Big-endian        2002/02/20 20:02
Little-endian     20:02 20/02/2002
                                                        .
Alas, it's not so much fun in MJD2000 format = 781.334782

Damn this cabin fever...

P.S. MJD2000 = Modified Julian Day 2000 = days since 2000/01/01 00:00 or
2000/01/01 12:00 depending which side you dress. I use the latter.
