- You've set you system clock to sometime before the boot time. That means that
- when VMS subtracts current time from BOOTTIME time, it gets a positive number
- and displays it as an absolute time rather than a relative time.

- Disclaimer: Hey, I understand VAXen and VMS. That's what I get paid for. My
- understanding of astronomy is purely at the amateur level (or below). So
- unless what I'm saying is directly related to VAX/VMS, don't hold me or my
- organization responsible for it. If it IS related to VAX/VMS, you can try to
- hold me responsible for it, but my organization had nothing to do with it.
