Friday Trivia. A start date of 30/12/1899 means 0 in some programs (e.g. Visual Basic). Other programs use 0 = 31/12/1899 (or more accurately they use 1= 1/1/1900). The discrepancy is because someone early on thought that 1900 was a leap year. See http://www.joelonsoftware.com/items/2006/06/16.html
