   Hey Mark!   
      
   How compatible is this?  Note that I've returned to the system's datetime   
   which is UTC - is there anything else? - and am using the topline to correct   
   for PST8PDT which given the daylight savings time allows for the corruption of   
   msgs.  However, since it isn't officially anything, the msg corruption is   
   limited to the two digit year DateTime stamp in the header.  If you compare   
   that with the topline DateTime you should be able to verify that the time   
   portion of the faulty FTN DateTime stamp is indeed UTC despite there is no way   
   to tell for sure without something to point out corruptable FTN standards ...   
   or practices if you prefer.   
      
   That being said the two digit year DateTime stamp really needs to die a   
   horrible death.   
      
   Life is good,   
   Maurice
