A little poking around shows that this is supported by the Long Now Foundation. They always write dates with five digits: 02010. They are trying to build a monument called the clock of the long now, which is meant to last 10,000 years. If you read the article about Brian Eno yesterday then this is another example of his influence in all manners of things. He sits on the board. I admire the foundation if only due to the scope of it's ambitious endeavors. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Now_Foundation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Now_Foundation
