Fair enough, that makes sense that it should be treated as 'no value' or NULL,
but what is the correct thing to display for a NULL value. I think it still
makes more sense to display Jan 1 1900. This would only be displayed for the
NULL value and would properly communicate to the user that there is no data.
Since Jan 1, 1970 is a valid date that corresponds to valid non-zero non-NULL
data it seems to me that a NULL value should not display that date.
If you guys are ok with that collision between a NULL value and non-NULL value
I am fine with leaving it as is since it is fairly minor and deals with dates
that shouldn't happen anytime soon.
