Well folks, I guess it's time to add code to cal to make it work
like this for all 2-digit year specifications:

	% cal 1 87
	January 87
	(NOTE: This is the year 87A.D., not the 87th year of your current
	 century)
	 ...

I guess we'd also need a -f option to say "I know what I'm doing, so don't
give me that line about what year you are giving me the calendar for".
