Re: Y2K

[Alan Lambert <gerard@xxxxxxx>]

You folks just don't get it--the rev limiter's basis for computational 
acuracy of the spinning speed of a gasoline engine is a function of the 
square root of the cosine function of the angle defined by the hypotenuse 
of the current date using year 2001 as a base. Therefore, if the 
immaginary number (=square root of minus one) which results from the root 
function of the negative result of a number derived from a function going 
to 1900 instead of 2000 is great than PI, then the engine will easily 
rev to 13,768 RPM.
