The Crouch Echlin Effect

See http://www.intranet.ca/~mike.echlin/bestif/tdpaper.htm
The Crouch Echlin Effect is a new Y2k problem that only kicks in sometime AFTER 1/1/00. Discovered by the dissonantly named Jace Crouch and Mike Echlin, its name sounds like fingernails on a blackboard. The Effect is described as "is a random jump in date and time, that occurs at random boots of affected computers and embedded systems only after rollover to year 2000".
