PS: I know it's not Friday, but this question came up in class yesterday and I thought maybe all of you might like to guess why null is Wednesday?

Wait.. What??

$ php -r 'echo date("l",NULL),"\n";'
Wednesday

Cos:

$ php -r 'echo date("r",NULL),"\n";'
Wed, 31 Dec 1969 18:00:00 -0600

(Personally, I would have thought Thursday should be NULL, but that's
just me. And Thursday.)

Actually, It *is* Thursday if you use UTC:

$ TZ=UTC php -r 'echo date("r",NULL),"\n";'
