I would make it that, but.. eh whatever. Let's make it a Y2K bug thread.
The Y2K bug shows that we should never EVER forget to have an overflow and underflow trap and checks. It's great to have shortcuts, but at times, these shortcuts can bite back (90 ... 99, 00), and it can be pretty dangerous.

And also, it justifies the reason that maybe we should seriously start using Unix time for everything related to daily-use time.
Unless you're a historian that wants to set your computer's date to 1902 or something. I don't know.
To answer your last question, as long as they don't sprout legs, you should be fine.
