Subj: REPLY TO MSG #780 (HOW ABOUT A DATE?)

Dear Richard,
  There is a thread file on CIS that had a deep insight into the date bug
problem.  It had something to do with a conflict between the communications
interrupt and the background task interrupt that reads the clock chip.  There
was a very narrow window of time where the interrupt could come that caused the
bug.  You could go through several TELCOM sessions before that event would
occur.  You're on CIS aren't you?  Look in the TELCOM library under DATE BUG if
you're interested.
