Wed 31 Dec 1969

Does anybody know what this is for?  I've seen this in other sites, and including ours!  :dunno:

Mostly I've seen it on 4x4 sites.  Is it some 4x4 code between Marlin, and ?
Just curious.  Or is this part of that Y2K crap?

I just googled it, checked snopes too and found nothing. Do you have links to where it is?

I've seen it on some really old posts here, I just tried to search for them and I can't remember which posts.  And on All-Pro's site.

I've seen it on other sites, but I'm not going to load this post up with them!  It just might be a default date!?
I tried a search, but it won't do a date search!  Just what's in the subject and body of a post!!  I know for a fact I've seen it on this site, cause it was on some old posts that I searching in!

I googled Dec 31 1969 and the last link on the first page says:

 

Dec 31, 1969 23:59:59 GMT?dec 31, 1969 23:59:59 gmt? ... "cache date said Dec 31, 1969": I believe the day before the first unix system date and sometimes used by engineers to tag or ...


http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&ie=UTF-8&rls=GGLD,GGLD:2004-26,GGLD:en&q=Dec+31+1969

But when I click the link I have to login to get further.... upon further investigation I found another page that also references the "unix timestamp" in the paragraph under the box.

http://london-seo.com/google-site-maps-crawl-date/7/

from there we google further...

The Unix Timestamp:     :biggthumpup:

http://www.unixtimestamp.com/   :

and wikipedia on the unix timestamp:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time  :willynilly:

I have no idea what all this means, but I'm sure some of our resident geeks could fill us in. BIG MIKE? :attention:

Oh, ofcourse :smack: , how could we have been so foolish?!  That was just after he invented oxygen, right?

You can go through life being scared of the possible, or you can have a little fun and tease the inevitable.

Give a man venison, he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to hunt Blacktail, he'll be frustrated for life!
