March 14 15:92 65 Hold on, is that 92 of what can go in that decimal feild for the minute (92/100), or 92 modulo 60 (which is 92-1*60=32 minutes)?? 92 modulo 60 makes more sense as it's just 2 minutes after 3:30pm...
There's overflow anyway, so there are too many interpretations, no wonder the Pi moment of the day doesn't exist =P
This one occured to me as well this morning, but I quickly rejected it again. I get enough of a headache just trying to explain a 24 hour clock to people, then if you add to that the fact that the minutes are being presented as a decimal value...
