Fire up Microcrap Excel. Open a blank workbook and format a cell as "Date." (Accept the default display format.) Now in that same cell enter "60." What do you see? Answer: “February 29, 1900” (or whatever display format you have chosen). The problem is that Feb 29, 1900 does not exist! The year 1900 is not a leap year! I'm seeing this right in front of me right now and I am using the very latest version of Microcrap Excel. OMFG! What junk! I thank John Walker for this: https://www.fourmilab.ch/documents/calendar/ -- Hail Linux! Hail FOSS! Hail Stallman!
