Oh. i'm sorry that didn't help, how about this
Dec 31, 1969
Jimi Hendrix introduced his new Band of Gypsys at a show that was recorded and later released as the live album "Band of Gypsys."

Now you can't say that has nothing to do with the forum, I've seen Hendrix's name mentioned several times.

i know i know!!!

A slight bug. The domain was originally registered by RSP
account. THEN it was transfered to another Registrar, and THEN it was
transfered BACK to OpenSRS in a DIFFERENT RSP account.

So - the ORIGINAL order would by now have expired, even though the domain is far from expiry and in a different account. The system balks on this order and gives a "0" date (which translates to December 31st, 1969). cool:
