Ah, using home written programs? Excelent, here's what you do:
Simply put your clock back a few years, and then modify your program to automatically adjust to it.
Or, if you use your amiga online a lot, get a clock syncroniser, I think there is one on aminet that grabs the correct time/date everytime you go online, therefore bypassing your batterybacked up clock.
Anyway, you've still got plenty of time left (famous last words) so who knows? You may buy (or be given? ;) a better accelerator with a battery backed up clock on it ;)
See ya.
