In the db environment that I use, time is weirdly handled to accommodate
weirdness like this:

$H -> Reports the number of days since Dec 31, 1840, and the number of seconds
since midnight.

%SYS>w $H
59709,58786
^^^     ^^^
# days    # seconds since midnight

Maybe you could do something similar?  Just trying to suggest something, but I
don't know of anything that would do all this externally to a mumps system...

Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders 
of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple 
matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist 
dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. 
Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding 
of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they 
are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, 
and exposing the country to greater danger.
