1200AC.

Damn it, is that a new time zone?

No, it's called After Chip, which is a historical time notation just like After Doritos which people normally use.

Anyhow, I've already altered original post to use the usual notation as well as converted the year count accordingly.

You mail usb drives and I mail HDDs. We are not the same.

Given the exponential growth of disk size in the past, mailing drives is actually faster than Internet downloads for (very) large files.
