I've gotten no responses (except requests for the answer).  The only way
I have found to make the date come back are by typing something: either
<CR> (which appears to reset the minibuffer), ^L or ^G (which displays
Quit, which after a while becomes the date and time).  The minibuffer is
a great mystery, according to the guru (Bala, are you out there :-) who
tought me emacs ... apparently he was right.  I'm still hoping for an
answer, if someone out there has it (Help Us, RMS! :-).  Thank you,
