that's an interesting one.  The GRN people say the network date/time is 29 Feb and a response page I received this morning says 29 Feb (from BOMS).  However if you manually change the date on your pager it will revert to 1 Mar so some part of the network definitely thinks it's 1st of March.  The GRN/Link people are looking into it anyway.

Unfortunately, from a computer database & logging prespective they would have had to fix the date problem quickly. Otherwise the database is incorrect into the future.
