        You will have to change the physical date on the computer.
        The problem with this is BRE has a feature now that detects
        when the clock is changed.  So it might not run it'll bomb
        out with such a message.  So I'm not sure how you can change
        the date manually and get around this.  Now if only you could
        write a program to advance time rapidly so bre doesn't detect
        the snafu :)
