The original Thunderclock (and many clones) didn't store the year at

the calendar congruence and a table of years to compute the year within
a 5 or 6 year interval (depending on whether the interval included two
or one leap years).

In that case, the year was all software.

Try this URL with "slotclock.patch.txt".  The ".patch.txt" apparently
got truncated.
