Um, I don't know how to break this to you, but... you have massively under-estimated the problem. It is December, yes -- December 2039. It's actually a bit chilly today; the weather just isn't what we remember from our childhoods, what with global warming and the farms of Brazil. We had to wind clocks back on older computers last year to avoid wrapping milliseconds, which is why your clock is wonky. Once you upgrade your OS you'll be fine.
