Instead of having hard-coded values, we should maybe do something more variable like: if (year >= (20 + YEARS_SINCE_2000) && year < (48 + YEARS_SINCE_2000) ...
YEARS_SINCE_2000 could be define'd through (menu;x;...)config...
This applies to other platforms using different epoch vaules as well, of course...
