Please mail ge...@mozilla.org with the date and time, in:

2001-01-01 10:10:10 <your-...@address.com>

format, of when exactly you think bug number 100,000 is going to be
filed in bugzilla.mozilla.org.

Asa won a holiday to someplace near Yosemite at the picnic today, but
the tight-fisted old so-and-so refuses to give it away, so the prize is
merely a free next-generation web browser and a year's subscription to
MozillaZine (a $39.95 value.)

You are allowed to file bugs to manipulate the result as long as you
honestly think they are valid ones. :-)

Let the guessing begin!

D'oh! I thought he said WHAT not WHEN! ACK!

Ok, I'll say:

Very good point. The time zone of Mountain View, California, on the date
of your guess. A.k.a. Bugzilla Time.

Too late, dude - letting you in now would be unfair.
