  As I pull down the calendar from its nailed up position on the wall, I 
just noticed that it has a version number. v1.0  <Sigh>  Although the 
stone blocks do read 4.4...

  A quick scan on the next month reveals that "Biff" was born on May 2nd, 
1978.  Any idea as to who Biff is?  (Who will be 18 then)  Or am I 
missing something again?  (It's a plot I tell you!  The Usenet Cabal 
strikes again!)

  I've now located a FarSide 366 page desk calendar that now hangs below
the sage calendar with the current date displayed in big numbers.  :-)
