*  All dates in the file are represented by century month codes (cmc). *00096000
*  The century month  code is defined  as the number of months  since  *00097000
*  December 1899 and is calculated as follows:                         *00098000
*                       cmc = 12*year + month                          *00099000
*  You can convert from cmc to normal calendar dates like this:        *00100000
*                       year = (cmc - 1)/12                            *00101000
*                       month = cmc - 12*year                          *00102000
*  To  compute the length of time in months  between any  two  events  *00103000
*  subtract the cmc of  the  first  event from the  cmc of the second  *00104000
*  event.                                                              *00105000
