Electronic Data Interchange (EDI), they will be required to have

sequencing) from, into, and between the twentieth and twenty-first 
centuries, and the years 1999 and 2000 and leap year calculations, 
to the extent that other information technology, used in combination 
with the information technology being acquired, properly exchanges 
date/time data with it.
