Hi,
as I understand in the manual the centuryCutOff function is just for
deciding what century if you use a 2-digit year...

e.g. try to get the weekday of a day 50 years and 10 days in the future:
get the date
convert it to dateitems
add 50 to item 1 of it
add 10 to item 3 of it
convert it to dateitems

invalid date

????
it doesn´t concern the centuryCutOff

Regards,
          Ernst
