ddate

DESCRIPTION
ddate prints the date in Discordian date format.

If called with no arguments, ddate will get the current system date,
convert this to the Discordian date format and print this on the standard output.
Alternatively, a Gregorian date may be specified on the
command line, in the form of a numerical day, month and year.

root@u1404:~# ddate
Today is [censored]-[censored], the 14th day of Chaos in the YOLD 3181

So we spent around 10 minutes @ work today 'researching' this new utility, while still having a bit o' fun.

edit: i guess the board censor rule does not like the word that rhymes with pickle.
