"01/01/1969" is a date = true on Mac but not on Windows?

Hi Klaus,

There is a set of routines in the Scripter's Scrapbook (called julianDates)
originally posted by Joel Guillod back in 2004 that manipulates dates using
Julian date system which (largely) removes any arbitrary cutoff date. I say
'Largely' only because it won't handle dates earlier than 4713BC. The
front-end application of the functions supplied is very straightforward. It
means you can correctly handle virtually any date you want.
