I am going to count the bogus error reports submitted to P5P during
calendar year 2000.  These will include:


		      `The month is off by one!'

			 `The year is wrong!'

		       `It has a y2k problem!'

  `It says that 2000 is a leap year, but century years are exempt!'

If you would like to try to guess how many of these reports are
submitted, and you have a PAUSE id, you can register your guess at

	http://www.plover.com/~mjd/perl/y2k/y2k.cgi

I will announce the winner in January 2001.

Registration will close at the end of 1999.
