Ah; didn't realize you wanted the exact time, not just a date! :-) Well, according to this: http://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/museum/ddn-news/ddn-news.n19.1 it was _planned_ to happen at "00:01 (EST) 1 Jan 1983". Whether it did happen at that moment, or if in reality there was some variance, I don't know (IIRC, I was off sailing in the Caribbean when it actually happened :-). Noel
