ROTFL!  I've had a battery cut-off switch in for some time now.  When
I'm away for a long time, I pull the switch to avoid any possible
battery drain.  Reconnect and she starts.  I don't see any possible
calendaring function in the ECU.  I had it apart and didn't see a
battery in there that would actually keep the time.  Maybe ticks from
startup or something.

I am stocking up on canned goods, beans, and rice though, in case
other distribution systems get FUBARd.
