Subject: BBC Year 2000 bug fix

A few years ago I wrote a short sideways RAM program that makes the computer
think that it is the 21st century.
  
It should work with any BBC with a real time clock that uses the BBC Master
calls.  I haven't tested it with any BBC emulators but there's no reason why
it shouldn't work.
  
It can be loaded in sideways RAM or blown into a ROM (if you want to).  It
is compatible with all the usual ROM joiners that allow you to have several
ROMs on one chip.
  
I was going to wait a while before making it available since it really isn't
of much use at the moment but if anyone is interested I may release it as a
freeware product.
