[NTLK] Y2010 and 130's

[Dan]

One final note.  I knew I read somewhere that it only affected
2.1....found it:
http://40hz.org/Pages/Newton%20Year%202010%20Problem
"The NewtonOS has a bug in handling years past 18:48:31 on January 5,
2010. The bug is located in the NewtonScript interface of certain time
functions, and it is caused by an overflow of a NewtonScript integer
value. This bug seems to only occur in NewtonOS 2.1 devices."

That should be updated sometime....if Eckhart has time.  :)  Regardless
great update and thank you for all your efforts!
