In the immortal words of Johnny Carson, I did not know that. About the default to 1900. Very interesting. I always thought time travelers would tend to cluster around the turns of centuries just because people are lazy and requesting "1900" takes less thought than, say, "1921."
"Metadata" is plural, but so is "data," and I gave up that fight long, long ago.
See my comment to WHL about infallible Papal steampunk robots. Which I think is now my favorite phrase of the week.
