That's fascinating, Stephen! Some time travel is involved here. :-) 
Messages from before the internet...

I do remember some time ago. Someone posted messages from, I think, 
1900. Lots of comments about resetting his PC clock. I am not sure how 
that would work as I thought that it was date stamped with the server time.

Now that you mention it, some ten years ago or more, I exchanged e-mails 
with somebody who had not cared about setting the clock. I got messages 
from all over time. Maybe in older PC's time stamps were not so mandatory...
