Well Len, before you get nostalgic, remember that there was also a lot of
civil unrest going on at that time due to the Vietnam war.  It's also when
the Apollo moon flights were going on too, so there was also a lot of good
technical innovation happening.  And, of course, that's when Star Trek was
new and there was no need to call it "the original series".

As for the date error programatically, I'm surprised the date came out to
be the day right before the start of most computer clocks, which usually
start at Jan 1 1970.  So even looking at it from that perspective it's
slightly interesting.
