PRAM battery problem?

I got up this morning and my Mac says it's 01/01/04 - do you suppose the PRAM battery that I've heard quite a bit about needs changing?

I think some of that Apple Juice must have been fermented :-)

I suspect the battery polarity is reversed, go back to what you was doing 12 hours ago and repeat, wake up again and restart....If it says 02/01/04 the battery is OK but you need to restart brain once alcohol and blood levels are 50/5

Have a great New Year and this is extended to all the regulars who have made this board a friendly place to visit over the last year...

All the best...
